Supply and installation of an air heat exchanger for the existing refrigeration system of an ice rink

This tender for an ice rink heat exchanger installation is fundamentally hampered by restricted document access and undisclosed estimated value, severely impacting fairness and legal compliance despite a clear description and reasonable deadlines.

While basic legal requirements like procedure type, CPV codes, and reasonable deadlines are met, the critical issue of restricted document access represents a significant breach of transparency principles fundamental to EU/national procurement regulations. Mandatory disclosure requirements are also not fully met due to the undisclosed estimated value.

The tender's title and description are clear, and AI-extracted requirements are well-structured, referencing specific documents for details. However, the overall clarity for bidders is significantly reduced by the 'No evaluation criteria specified' flag and the 'Restricted document access', which prevents full understanding of the detailed requirements and evaluation methods.

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, deadlines, and duration are provided. However, the estimated contract value is not disclosed, which is a significant omission. Furthermore, while documents are listed, 'Restricted document access' means they are not fully available, impacting the completeness of accessible information.

Fairness is severely compromised by the 'Restricted document access' and the 'Estimated value not disclosed'. These issues prevent potential bidders from fully understanding the scope, preparing competitive offers, and ensuring equal access to information. The lack of explicitly specified and accessible evaluation criteria further undermines transparency and objectivity.

The tender states 'E-Procurement' characteristics, which is positive for practicality. However, 'Restricted document access' makes it practically impossible for bidders to obtain necessary information to prepare and submit a bid. The absence of a clear contract start date and financing information also reduces practicality for planning purposes.

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. However, there are notable inconsistencies, such as 'E-Procurement' being listed as a characteristic while an automated check flags 'No e-submission'. More critically, 'Documents available' is listed as a strength while 'Restricted document access' is flagged as an issue, creating ambiguity.

The tender does not include any specific criteria or mentions related to green procurement, social aspects, or innovation. It is also not indicated as EU-funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.
