Tender Quality Score

This Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) tender for waste treatment and disposal services is generally well-structured and clear in its service description. While its DPS nature promotes fairness, it has some completeness and practicality issues, such as missing key contact information, a direct document URL, and an inconsistency regarding e-submission.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The procedure type (DPS) and CPV code are clearly defined, and there are no disputes. The long submission deadline is reasonable for a DPS. However, the 'Liable Person' is missing, and the 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes are empty. The absence of a reveal date is a minor transparency concern for initial publication.

Missing 'Liable Person'
Missing 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes
Clarity80/100

The description of services and material streams is very clear and unambiguous. The AI-extracted requirements are well-structured and understandable. While evaluation criteria are not detailed in the summary, the tender explicitly states they are available in the procurement documents, which is typical for a DPS.

Evaluation criteria not explicitly detailed in the summary (though referenced in documents)
Completeness70/100

Basic information, estimated value, duration, and location are provided. Documents are listed and summarized. However, the 'Liable Person' is missing, as are the specific codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'. The reveal date is also absent, and evaluation criteria are only referenced, not detailed.

Missing 'Liable Person'
Missing 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes
Fairness85/100

The DPS structure inherently promotes fairness by allowing continuous entry and not limiting the number of service providers. The estimated value is disclosed, and requirements appear generic. There is a contradiction regarding 'E-Procurement' and 'No e-submission' that needs clarification.

Contradiction between 'E-Procurement' characteristic and 'No e-submission' automated check
Practicality65/100

The tender states 'E-Procurement' as a characteristic, which is positive, but this is contradicted by an automated check. A significant practical omission is the lack of a direct URL to the procurement documents. The contract start date is also not specified.

No direct URL for procurement documents provided
Contract start date not specified
Data Consistency90/100

Most key fields are populated, there are no disputes, and dates are logical. The primary inconsistency lies in the contradiction between the 'E-Procurement' characteristic and the 'No e-submission' automated check result. Missing 'Liable Person' and 'Type'/'Procedure' codes are minor gaps.

Contradiction between 'E-Procurement' characteristic and 'No e-submission' automated check
Missing 'Liable Person'
Sustainability50/100

While the subject matter (waste management) is inherently linked to environmental sustainability, the tender description does not explicitly incorporate green procurement criteria, social aspects, or innovation requirements beyond the basic service provision.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit social aspects

Strengths

Clear description of services and material streams
Use of Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) promotes continuous market access and fairness

Concerns

Missing 'Liable Person' and specific codes for Type/Procedure
No direct URL for procurement documents provided in the summary
Contradiction between 'E-Procurement' characteristic and 'No e-submission' automated check

Evaluation criteria not explicitly detailed in the summary, though referenced in documents

Recommendations

1. Provide a direct URL to the full procurement documents for easy access.
2. Clarify and ensure consistency regarding e-submission capabilities.
