Tender Quality Score

This tender exhibits significant fairness concerns due to highly restrictive eligibility criteria, limiting competition to specific Technal dealers. While the project scope and timeline are clear, the absence of explicit evaluation criteria and lack of e-submission are notable deficiencies.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes appropriately. However, the absence of a clear reveal date and explicit mandatory exclusion grounds are minor legal compliance gaps. No disputes or suspensions are noted.

Missing reveal date
No explicit mandatory exclusion grounds
Clarity65/100

The project description and performance conditions are clearly outlined. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces clarity for potential bidders on how their proposals will be assessed.

Missing evaluation criteria
Completeness70/100

Basic information, financial details, timeline, and location are provided. While requirements are listed, the lack of explicit evaluation criteria and reliance on external 'Appendix 1' and 'Technal specification' without their content in the summary reduces overall completeness.

Missing evaluation criteria
Reliance on external documents for full scope details without their content being summarized
Fairness30/100

The requirement for bidders to be an 'approved Technal dealer' or partner with one of the explicitly listed dealers is highly restrictive and severely limits competition, indicating potential tailoring. The absence of evaluation criteria and lack of e-submission further compromise fairness and transparency.

Highly restrictive eligibility criteria (tailored to specific brand/dealers)
Missing evaluation criteria
Practicality60/100

Contract start date and duration are clearly specified, which is practical for planning. However, the absence of an electronic submission option is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement processes.

No electronic submission option
Data Consistency80/100

Key dates and financial values are consistent. However, some fields like 'Liable Person', 'Type Code', and 'Procedure Code' are empty, and the reveal date is missing, indicating minor data gaps.

Empty fields for 'Liable Person', 'Type Code', 'Procedure Code'
Missing reveal date
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not include any explicit green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not indicated as EU funded, suggesting a complete lack of sustainability considerations.

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear project scope and performance conditions
Detailed timeline for contract execution
Value and duration are clearly specified
Relevant CPV code and NUTS code provided

Concerns

Recommendations
