Boiler and Gas Servicing Contract

This tender is critically incomplete, lacking essential details for bidders to prepare a compliant and competitive offer, raising significant concerns about fairness, transparency, and legal compliance.

The absence of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, technical, and financial requirements, along with missing evaluation criteria, suggests potential non-compliance with fundamental public procurement principles regarding transparency, equal treatment, and proportionality.

The tender is severely lacking in clarity due to the absence of detailed requirements, specifications, and supporting documents. Bidders cannot understand the full scope or expectations of the Boiler and Gas Servicing contract.

The tender is critically incomplete, missing almost all substantive information typically found in a public procurement document, including detailed requirements, specifications, terms and conditions, and evaluation criteria. No documents are attached.

The extreme lack of detail creates a highly unfair bidding environment. Only bidders with prior knowledge of St Helens Council's specific premises, equipment, and existing servicing arrangements could realistically submit a competitive bid, potentially favoring an incumbent or specific companies.

It is impractical for potential bidders to prepare a meaningful and compliant offer without any supporting documents, detailed specifications, or clear requirements. This will likely lead to low bidder participation or non-compliant bids.

While the limited data provided is internally consistent, the overall lack of information makes it impossible to assess consistency across a comprehensive set of tender documents.

No information regarding green procurement, social criteria, or innovation focus is provided, indicating a complete absence of sustainability considerations in the tender.
