Original Tender Description

Cambridgeshire County Council is seeking to enter a Term Contract arrangement with one suitable organisation for the movement of temporary/portable buildings already owned by the Council, including providing temporary storage facilities where a direct transfer of a modular building between sites is not practicable. Movements of temporary buildings may include relocation from site to site, relocation on the same site or removal from site for disposal. In addition to the movement of modular buildings from site to site, the Term Contract will incorporate most of the associated works necessary to effect complete installation and making ready for occupation of the buildings. These activities will include carrying out necessary enabling works to allow access, associated groundworks, and installing services and utilities as appropriate (water, gas, electricity, fire alarm and drainage, including installing ducts for future Client use, etc.) as well as any surveys required and the removal and/or reinstatement of any temporary structures/works necessary to access the works (such as fencing, gates, planting etc). It is further required that the contract holder will carry out repairs to existing mobile buildings and their service installations for the duration of the contract. Therefore, this contract will also be used when providing a cost for such repairs, either using the scheduled rates, where applicable, or on a parts and labour (quotation) basis under the provisions of this contract.

Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a clear description of the required works but suffers from significant deficiencies in transparency and completeness, particularly regarding evaluation criteria and e-submission capabilities. Key legal and financial details are also notably absent.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance70/100

The tender clearly defines the procedure type and assigns an appropriate CPV code, with no reported disputes. However, the absence of specific mandatory exclusion grounds and an unpopulated 'Liable Person' field are notable legal omissions that could impact compliance.

Missing specific mandatory exclusion grounds
Liable Person not specified
Clarity55/100

The project description and technical capability requirements are clear and well-articulated. Nevertheless, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria severely hinders the clarity of how bids will be assessed, and specific financial requirements are not detailed.

No evaluation criteria specified
No specific financial requirements detailed
Completeness60/100

Basic information, deadlines, estimated value, duration, and location are provided, and supporting documents are available. However, the tender is incomplete due to the lack of specified evaluation criteria, specific mandatory exclusion grounds, and detailed financial requirements.

Missing evaluation criteria
Missing specific mandatory exclusion grounds
Fairness45/100

While document access is implied and the estimated value is disclosed, the absence of evaluation criteria makes the process opaque and potentially subjective, severely undermining fairness. Furthermore, the lack of e-submission creates unnecessary barriers to equal access for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
No e-submission
Practicality50/100

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

No e-submission
Data Consistency80/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical and consistent. There are no reported disputes. Minor inconsistencies include the unpopulated 'Liable Person' field and the 'Value Classified: Yes' flag appearing alongside a disclosed estimated value.

"Liable Person" field unpopulated
"Value Classified: Yes" contradicts disclosed value
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not include any explicit green procurement, social, or innovation aspects, nor is it indicated as EU funded. This represents a missed opportunity to integrate broader public value considerations into the procurement process.

No green procurement
No social criteria

Strengths
