Tender Quality Score

This tender for security services exhibits significant deficiencies in clarity, completeness, fairness, practicality, and data consistency, primarily due to missing critical information and severe date inconsistencies.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance70/100

The tender defines a 'Restricted' procedure and uses a correct CPV code. Deadlines for participation and full submission appear reasonable in duration. However, the term 'Competitive flexible procedure' is somewhat ambiguous, and the explicit legal framework governing the tender is not detailed, preventing a higher score.

Ambiguous 'Competitive flexible procedure' type
Lack of explicit mention of governing legal framework
Clarity40/100

While the service description is clear, the AI-extracted requirements are extremely vague and high-level, lacking essential details for mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, technical, and financial criteria. Crucially, evaluation criteria are explicitly missing, severely impacting the clarity for potential bidders.

Missing evaluation criteria
Vague and high-level eligibility, technical, and financial requirements
Completeness45/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and CPV code is present. However, the tender is significantly incomplete due to the absence of detailed eligibility, technical, financial requirements, and, most critically, evaluation criteria, which are fundamental for a comprehensive tender.

Missing detailed eligibility, technical, and financial requirements
Absence of evaluation criteria
Fairness35/100

The estimated value is disclosed, and the restricted procedure is standard. However, the explicit lack of evaluation criteria is a major fairness concern, as it undermines transparency and objectivity in the selection process. The absence of e-submission also limits equal access for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified, impacting transparency and objectivity
No e-submission support, limiting equal access
Practicality25/100

Practicality is severely hampered by the lack of e-submission support and the absence of a document URL. A critical issue is the inconsistency in the contract start date (May 1, 2026, in description vs. July 31, 2026, in timeline), and the timeline showing the contract starting on the same day as the submission deadline, which is impractical.

No e-submission support
No document URL provided
Data Consistency15/100

Data consistency is very poor due to multiple critical inconsistencies. The contract start date in the timeline (July 31, 2026) contradicts the description (May 1, 2026). The submission deadline (July 31, 2026) is listed as the same day as the contract start date. There's also a slight discrepancy in the submission deadline between the main timeline and AI-extracted information. The 'Liable Person' field is empty.

Inconsistent contract start dates (May 1 vs July 31)
Submission deadline and contract start date are identical
Sustainability10/100

The tender makes no mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not indicated as EU funded, suggesting a complete absence of sustainability considerations in the procurement process.

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear service description
Estimated value disclosed
CPV code provided
Documents listed with summaries
No disputes reported

Concerns

Missing detailed evaluation criteria and requirements
Critical inconsistencies in contract start and submission dates
Lack of e-submission support and document URL
Absence of sustainability considerations
Vague 'Competitive flexible procedure' definition

Recommendations

1. Immediately rectify all date inconsistencies, especially the contract start date and its relation to the submission deadline.
2. Publish comprehensive and clear eligibility, technical, financial requirements, and detailed evaluation criteria.
3. Implement electronic submission for improved accessibility and efficiency, and provide a direct URL to tender documents.
