Tender Quality Score

This tender suffers from a critical lack of documentation and detailed specifications, making it impossible for potential bidders to prepare comprehensive and competitive offers. While basic information is present, the absence of core tender documents severely compromises the fairness and transparency of the procurement process.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance100/100

The tender appears to follow a basic structure for an open competition below threshold. However, the complete absence of tender documents containing detailed specifications, terms, and conditions raises significant concerns regarding compliance with principles of transparency, equal treatment, and proportionality, as bidders cannot fully understand the requirements.

Absence of detailed tender documents and specifications.
Clarity40/100

Clarity is extremely poor due to the complete absence of tender documents. While the description provides a high-level overview, the 'extracted requirements' are generic ('Ability to supply/install X') and lack the necessary technical detail, specific standards, or performance metrics required for a clear understanding of the scope.

Lack of specific technical specifications
Vague eligibility and exclusion criteria (no details provided)
Completeness83/100

The tender is critically incomplete. The most significant issue is the complete absence of any attached documents, which would typically contain the full tender specifications, drawings, terms and conditions, and submission forms. Key details such as the exact installation location, specific material requirements, design standards, and detailed evaluation sub-criteria are entirely missing.

No tender documents attached
Missing detailed technical specifications
Fairness60/100

The fairness of this tender is severely compromised. Without detailed tender documents, all bidders are at a disadvantage, unable to accurately assess the scope, risks, and costs. This lack of information creates an uneven playing field, potentially favoring bidders with prior knowledge or those who can obtain informal information, thus undermining the principle of equal treatment.

Uneven playing field due to lack of information
Bidders cannot prepare accurate bids without detailed specifications
Practicality40/100

From a bidder's perspective, responding to this tender is highly impractical. Without any tender documents, detailed specifications, or site information, it is impossible to formulate a compliant, competitive, and accurately priced bid. Bidders would be forced to make significant assumptions, leading to potentially non-compliant offers or inflated pricing to cover unknown risks.

Impossible for bidders to prepare accurate and competitive bids
High risk of non-compliant bids due to lack of information
Data Consistency100/100

Based on the limited information provided, there are no apparent inconsistencies. However, the lack of detailed data makes it impossible to conduct a thorough consistency check. The primary issue is the absence of data itself.

Sustainability0/100

The tender does not include any specific requirements or criteria related to environmental, social, or economic sustainability. This represents a missed opportunity to leverage public procurement for broader societal benefits.

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear title and reference number
Organization and estimated value are disclosed
CPV code provided for classification
Basic description of the required bridge dimensions and load capacity

Concerns

Complete absence of tender documents and detailed specifications
Lack of specific technical requirements beyond basic dimensions and load types
Missing detailed evaluation criteria, especially for the 60% quality weighting
Absence of the exact installation location
Vague eligibility and mandatory exclusion grounds without any accompanying details

Recommendations

1. Immediately publish all necessary tender documents, including detailed technical specifications, drawings, terms and conditions, and evaluation sub-criteria.
2. Clearly specify the exact installation location and provide any relevant site information or survey requirements.
3. Elaborate on the 'MANDATORY EXCLUSION GROUNDS' and 'ELIGIBILITY REQUIREMENTS' with specific criteria and required evidence.
