Tender Quality Score

This tender for a catering kiosk license provides basic information clearly but suffers from significant deficiencies in transparency, completeness, and fairness due to missing evaluation criteria, high-level requirements, and issues with document information.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance65/100

The tender defines its procedure type and CPV code appropriately, and there are no reported disputes. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria and detailed financial requirements for bidders, even for a below-threshold tender, poses a significant risk to transparency and equal treatment, which are fundamental procurement principles. The missing reveal date also prevents verification of reasonable publication periods.

Missing reveal date
No evaluation criteria specified
Clarity45/100

The core description of the catering kiosk and its location is clear. However, the AI-extracted requirements are high-level and lack specificity. Critically, the tender explicitly states 'No evaluation criteria specified,' which creates significant ambiguity for potential bidders on how their proposals will be assessed. Performance conditions are also broadly defined without clear metrics.

No evaluation criteria specified
Requirements are high-level and lack detail
Completeness40/100

Basic information such as title, organization, estimated value, duration, and location are provided. However, the tender is incomplete regarding crucial details like specific evaluation criteria, detailed financial requirements for bidders, and a clear reveal date. A significant concern is the inclusion of an irrelevant document summary ('Tender Notice' referring to Oracle services), which raises questions about the integrity and relevance of the attached documentation.

No evaluation criteria specified
No specific financial requirements for bidders
Fairness30/100

The tender value is disclosed, and the stated requirements are generic, not appearing tailored. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria is a critical flaw, making the assessment process inherently subjective and undermining transparency and equal treatment. The lack of electronic submission (e-submission) also presents a barrier to equal access for all potential bidders. The missing reveal date prevents confirmation of a reasonable preparation period.

No evaluation criteria specified
No e-submission
Practicality50/100

The tender lacks support for electronic submission, which is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement. A direct document URL is also not provided, potentially complicating access to full tender documents. While the contract start date and duration are clearly specified, these practical limitations hinder ease of participation.

No e-submission
No document URL provided
Data Consistency50/100

Key dates (submission, contract start) and financial values are logical and consistent. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. However, some fields like 'Liable Person,' 'Type Code,' and 'Procedure Code' are empty. A major data consistency issue is the summary of 'Document 1: Tender Notice' which refers to an entirely different procurement (Oracle services), indicating a significant error in the provided tender data or its processing.

Irrelevant document summary
Empty fields (Liable Person, Type Code, Procedure Code)
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not include any explicit criteria or focus on green procurement, social aspects, or innovation. It is also not EU-funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.

Not green procurement
No social criteria
