Tender Quality Score

This tender for combined liability insurance demonstrates good basic information and a clear service description, but is significantly hampered by the absence of evaluation criteria and lack of e-submission, impacting clarity, completeness, and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code correctly, and there are no disputes. The submission period is reasonable (28 days). However, the 'Missing reveal date' is a procedural transparency concern, and the summary lacks specific details on mandatory exclusion grounds, referring to full documents.

Missing reveal date
No specific mandatory exclusion grounds detailed in summary
Clarity60/100

The description of the required insurance services is clear and unambiguous. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces clarity. Additionally, financial and submission requirements are vague, directing bidders to full documents for essential details.

No evaluation criteria specified
Vague financial requirements (referring to full documents)
Completeness65/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and location is provided. However, the tender is incomplete due to the absence of detailed evaluation criteria and vague financial/submission requirements. The 'Required: No' status for all listed documents is also unusual for administrative documents.

No evaluation criteria specified
Vague financial and submission requirements
Fairness55/100

The tender value is disclosed, and the requirements do not appear tailored to a specific company. However, the critical absence of evaluation criteria severely compromises transparency and objectivity. The lack of e-submission also creates a barrier to equal access for all potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
No e-submission
Practicality60/100

The contract start date and duration are clearly specified. However, the absence of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders.

No e-submission
Data Consistency70/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. There are no disputes or suspensions. However, there is an inconsistency in the estimated value, stated as 480,000.00 EUR in the basic information but £400,000 in document summaries. The 'Liable Person' field is also empty.

Inconsistency in estimated value (EUR vs. GBP)
Missing 'Liable Person'
Sustainability20/100

The tender completely lacks any mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not indicated as EU funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.
