UK4 - Udbud meddelelse Forebyggelse af perifere kuldeskader

This tender for the prevention of peripheral cold injuries presents a well-defined research objective and clear technical requirements. However, it lacks specific evaluation criteria and crucial details regarding submission methods, impacting overall practicality and completeness.

The tender appears to comply with general procurement regulations, including the use of a proper CPV code and an open procedure. Deadlines are specified. No disputes are noted. The CPV code (73111000 Research laboratory services) is appropriate for the described research. The contract start date of June 29, 2026, is reasonable following the submission deadline of April 13, 2026, allowing for evaluation.

The description of the problem and objectives is clear, outlining the need for prediction and clinical assessment tools for peripheral cold injuries in the UK Armed Forces. Technical requirements are detailed and specific to the research area. The estimated value and contract duration are provided.

While basic information like title, reference, organization, description, estimated value, and deadlines are present, the tender is missing crucial documentation such as detailed evaluation criteria and the content of the attached documents. This lack of information hinders a full understanding of the submission requirements.

The tender is open, allowing any eligible bidder to participate. The estimated value is disclosed. The criteria outlined are objective and related to technical capability. However, the requirement for bidders to provide specific, detailed requirements in multiple languages (English, Estonian, Latvian, Polish, and Lithuanian) could be seen as a barrier for some potential bidders, potentially favouring companies with extensive multilingual capabilities or regional presence, though it directly relates to the stated operational context of NATO deterrence in Nordic-Baltic regions.

The tender lacks information on the submission method, specifically whether it is an e-submission. The absence of details on document URLs and a clear indication of financing source (beyond the estimated value) reduce practicality. The contract start date is provided, but the lack of clarity on submission platform is a significant drawback.

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, value, CPV, NUTS code, contract duration, and start/submission dates are populated consistently. No suspension or disputes are indicated, and the temporal logic between the submission deadline and contract start date is sound.

The tender does not explicitly mention any green procurement initiatives, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not indicated as EU funded, suggesting a lack of emphasis on these common sustainability indicators within the procurement process.
