Tender Quality Score

This tender for Barbican Renewal Construction Management is generally well-structured with clear technical requirements, but lacks specific evaluation criteria and details on sustainability, impacting its overall quality.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender adheres to general legal compliance by providing a clear procedure, CPV code, and no immediate dispute flags. However, the submission deadline appears very tight relative to the contract start date, which could be a compliance issue if not handled correctly. The absence of a reveal date is a minor procedural oversight.

Submission deadline is the same as the contract start date, potentially leaving insufficient time for evaluation.
Clarity80/100

The description of the services required is detailed and comprehensive, outlining the scope, context, and expected responsibilities of the Construction Manager. The technical requirements are clearly documented, though specific evaluation criteria are missing.

Evaluation criteria are not specified.
Completeness70/100

Most basic information is present, including estimated value, duration, and contract start. However, the lack of content in the attached documents and the missing reveal date detract from its completeness.

Missing reveal date.
Fairness85/100

The tender appears fair, with full document access implied (though content is missing), disclosed value, and objective technical requirements. The procedure is competitive. There are no obvious signs of tailoring requirements to specific companies.
