Provision of IVF Media Consumables

This tender for IVF media consumables demonstrates good clarity in technical requirements but is significantly hampered by the absence of evaluation criteria and lack of e-submission, impacting fairness and legal compliance.

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes appropriately, and there are no disputes. However, the critical omission of evaluation criteria is a significant legal compliance concern, as is the missing reveal date.

The description of the required services and technical specifications for the IVF media consumables is clear and unambiguous. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces clarity for potential bidders on how their proposals will be assessed.

Basic information, value, duration, and location are provided, and documents are available. Nevertheless, the tender is incomplete due to the critical absence of evaluation criteria and lack of detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, financial, or specific submission requirements.

While document access is provided and requirements do not appear tailored, the absence of transparent evaluation criteria and the lack of e-submission significantly undermine the fairness and equal access for all potential bidders.

The contract start date and duration are clear. However, the lack of electronic submission support is a major practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders.

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. However, there is an inconsistency in the estimated value (£510,000 in summaries vs 612,000 EUR in basic info), and some codes/liable person fields are empty.

The tender does not include any explicit green procurement, social, or innovation criteria. This represents a missed opportunity to integrate broader public value considerations.
