Tender Quality Score

This tender presents significant deficiencies in documentation and transparency, particularly regarding evaluation criteria and full tender document access, which severely impact fairness and completeness. While the project description is clear, critical information for bidders is absent.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance60/100

The tender lacks explicit mention of mandatory exclusion grounds and, critically, does not specify evaluation criteria, which are fundamental for legal compliance and transparency. The absence of a reveal date also impacts transparency.

Missing mandatory exclusion grounds
No evaluation criteria specified
Clarity50/100

The project description and the required role of the Structural Engineer are clearly articulated. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria significantly hinders clarity for potential bidders, making it impossible to understand how proposals will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria specified
Lack of full tender documents limits overall clarity
Completeness45/100

While basic information like title, organization, value, and deadlines are present, the tender is critically incomplete due to the absence of full tender documents (only summaries are provided) and the lack of specified evaluation criteria and mandatory exclusion grounds.

No full tender documents provided (only summaries)
No evaluation criteria specified
Fairness35/100

Fairness is severely compromised by the lack of full document access, the absence of transparent evaluation criteria, and the stated lack of e-submission, which creates barriers to equal participation. Requirements appear specific but not overtly tailored.

No full document access
No evaluation criteria specified
Practicality40/100

The tender's practicality is significantly hampered by the absence of electronic submission capabilities, which is a major drawback in modern procurement. The lack of full tender documents also makes it impractical for bidders to prepare comprehensive proposals.

No electronic submission supported
Lack of full tender documents
Data Consistency65/100

There is a minor inconsistency with the missing procedure type code. A potential discrepancy exists between the estimated construction value (£4m) and the tender's estimated value (120,000 EUR) for consultancy services, which could be clearer.

Missing procedure type code
Potential inconsistency between construction value and tender value
Sustainability20/100

The tender makes no mention of any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus, indicating a complete absence of sustainability considerations in the procurement process.

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria
