Tender Quality Score

This tender clearly outlines the required executive search services but is significantly hampered by the absence of accessible tender documents and evaluation criteria, impacting completeness and fairness. Practicality is also reduced by the lack of e-submission.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code correctly, and there are no disputes. However, the absence of specific procedure codes, a liable person, and detailed mandatory exclusion grounds represents minor compliance gaps.

Missing procedure codes for 'Restricted' and 'Competitive flexible procedure'
Liable person not specified
Clarity60/100

The description of services and AI-extracted requirements are clear and understandable. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria is a significant deficiency that severely impacts the clarity for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness50/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and CPV code are present. However, the critical issue is the lack of accessible content for the 4 listed tender documents, making the tender incomplete for proper bidding. Evaluation criteria are also missing.

No document content available for the listed tender documents
Missing evaluation criteria
Fairness40/100

The estimated value is disclosed, and requirements do not appear tailored. However, the lack of accessible tender documents and the complete absence of evaluation criteria severely compromise the transparency and objectivity of the process, hindering fair competition. The absence of e-submission also limits equal access.

No full document access (documents with content/summaries: 0)
No evaluation criteria specified, impacting transparency and objectivity
Practicality60/100

The contract start date, duration, and financing information are available. However, the lack of electronic submission support and the apparent inaccessibility of tender documents are significant practical drawbacks for bidders.

No e-submission supported
Document URLs not provided/documents not accessible
Data Consistency85/100

Key fields are mostly populated, and dates (submission deadline, contract start) are logical and consistent. Minor fields like 'Liable Person' and procedure 'Code' are missing, but this does not create significant inconsistencies.

Liable Person not specified
Procedure codes not specified
Sustainability30/100

The tender does not explicitly include green procurement, social criteria (beyond 'inclusive recruitment campaigns' as an outcome of the service), or innovation focus. It is also not EU funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit social criteria (beyond service outcome)

Strengths

Clear description of required services
Specific CPV and NUTS codes provided
Estimated value and contract duration clearly stated
Requirements for the service provider are well-articulated

Concerns

No accessible tender documents (content/summaries: 0)
Missing evaluation criteria, severely impacting clarity and fairness
No e-submission option, limiting accessibility
Lack of explicit sustainability, green, or innovation criteria

Recommendations

1. Ensure all tender documents are fully accessible and their content is summarized or provided.
2. Clearly define and publish objective evaluation criteria to ensure transparency and fairness.
3. Implement an e-submission platform to facilitate broader participation and efficiency.
