Tender Quality Score

This tender clearly outlines the service requirements but significantly lacks transparency regarding the estimated value and, critically, the evaluation criteria, which undermines fairness and clarity for potential bidders.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender uses a standard open procedure and an appropriate CPV code, with no reported disputes. However, the classified estimated value and the absence of evaluation criteria represent significant disclosure shortcomings, and the reveal date is missing.

Estimated value not disclosed
Missing evaluation criteria
Clarity60/100

The service description and technical requirements are clear. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria is a major clarity issue, and specific mandatory exclusion grounds are not detailed, leaving bidders uncertain about assessment methods.

No evaluation criteria specified
No specific mandatory exclusion grounds detailed
Completeness65/100

Basic information, duration, and documents are provided. However, the estimated value is not disclosed, and the evaluation criteria are missing, which are crucial elements for a complete and transparent tender package.

Estimated value not disclosed
Missing evaluation criteria
Fairness55/100

E-procurement is enabled, and requirements do not appear tailored. Nevertheless, the classified value and the absence of evaluation criteria severely compromise the objectivity and transparency of the process, making it difficult for bidders to compete fairly.

Estimated value not disclosed
Missing evaluation criteria
Practicality70/100

The tender supports e-procurement, specifies duration, and provides a contract start date. The classified estimated value, however, limits bidders' ability to fully assess financial implications and plan resources effectively.

Estimated value not disclosed
Data Consistency80/100

The data is largely consistent with no disputes. However, some basic fields (e.g., Liable Person, Type/Procedure codes) are empty, and the turnaround time between submission and contract start is very tight, though internally consistent.

Some basic fields are empty
Sustainability20/100

There is no mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus within the provided tender information, indicating a lack of emphasis on sustainability considerations.

No green procurement
No social criteria

Concerns

Recommendations
