Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a clear service description and contract duration but suffers from a critical lack of essential documentation and explicit criteria, severely hindering bidder participation and transparency.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance100/100

The tender is for a 'Below threshold - open competition,' implying adherence to basic procurement principles. However, the absence of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, financial requirements, and evaluation criteria makes it difficult to fully assess compliance with transparency and equal treatment principles.

Missing explicit mandatory exclusion grounds
Missing explicit eligibility requirements
Clarity40/100

The general description of services is clear, but the repeated reference to a non-existent 'Specification at Appendix 1' creates significant ambiguity regarding the actual scope and detailed requirements.

Critical document 'Specification at Appendix 1' is referenced but not provided, leading to unclear detailed requirements
Completeness83/100

The tender is severely incomplete due to the absence of all supporting documents, particularly the crucial 'Specification at Appendix 1.' Key sections like mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, financial requirements, and evaluation criteria are also explicitly missing. The NUTS code is also not specified.

No documents attached
'Specification at Appendix 1' is missing
Fairness60/100

The lack of detailed specifications, explicit eligibility/financial criteria, and evaluation criteria creates an uneven playing field. Bidders cannot adequately prepare proposals without the full scope of requirements, potentially favoring those with prior knowledge or direct communication with the contracting authority.

Lack of detailed specifications (due to missing Appendix 1)
Absence of explicit eligibility/financial criteria
Practicality40/100

From a bidder's perspective, it is impractical to submit a compliant and competitive bid without the 'Specification at Appendix 1' and clear evaluation criteria. This will likely lead to low participation or non-compliant bids.

Impractical for bidders to prepare a comprehensive bid without the crucial 'Specification at Appendix 1' and evaluation criteria
Data Consistency100/100

The tender consistently refers to 'Specification at Appendix 1' but then states 'DOCUMENTS (0 total),' creating a direct contradiction and a significant inconsistency in the provided information.

Direct contradiction between references to 'Specification at Appendix 1' and the 'DOCUMENTS (0 total)' section
Sustainability0/100

No information regarding green procurement, social criteria, or innovation focus is provided, indicating a lack of consideration for sustainability aspects in the tender design.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit social criteria
