Tender Quality Score

This tender for cemetery extension works has a clear project description and reasonable timeline but suffers from significant deficiencies in completeness, clarity, and fairness due to missing critical documents and evaluation criteria. The lack of e-submission and data inconsistencies further detract from its overall quality.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and assigns a relevant CPV code. Deadlines are reasonable, and there are no disputes. However, the absence of specific legal clauses for mandatory exclusion grounds and the inclusion of an irrelevant document slightly detract from full compliance.

Missing procedure type codes
Inclusion of irrelevant document (Document 1)
Clarity60/100

The project description is clear, and AI-extracted requirements are understandable. However, the critical 'specification' document, repeatedly referenced, is not provided, and evaluation criteria are explicitly missing, severely impacting clarity for bidders.

Missing detailed specification document
Missing explicit evaluation criteria
Completeness55/100

Basic information like title, reference, organization, value, and duration are present. However, crucial documents such as the detailed specification and explicit evaluation criteria are absent. An irrelevant document is also included, indicating poor document management.

Missing detailed specification document
Missing explicit evaluation criteria
Fairness40/100

The lack of explicit evaluation criteria and the absence of the detailed specification document severely compromise transparency and objectivity, making it difficult for bidders to prepare competitive proposals. The absence of e-submission also creates an unnecessary barrier.

Missing explicit evaluation criteria
No electronic submission support
Practicality60/100

Contract duration and start date are clear. However, the absence of electronic submission support is a significant practical drawback, increasing administrative burden for bidders.

No electronic submission support
Data Consistency65/100

The tender lacks consistency with a discrepancy between the estimated value in the main financial section (€600,000) and the official PDF summary (£500,000). The inclusion of an entirely irrelevant document also points to poor data management.

Discrepancy in estimated value (€600,000 vs £500,000)
Inclusion of irrelevant document (Document 1)
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not include any explicit requirements or considerations for green procurement, social aspects, or innovation, nor is it EU funded, indicating a lack of focus on sustainability.

No sustainability criteria
No social aspects

Strengths

Clear project description and scope
Reasonable submission deadline (43 days)
CPV code and NUTS code are correctly assigned
Estimated value and contract duration are specified

Concerns

Critical tender documents (detailed specification, evaluation criteria) are missing
