FIN25147 - Finance System Replacement

This is a preliminary market engagement notice, well-described in its intent, but lacking in formal procedure details, e-submission support, and sustainability considerations for the future tender.

While this is a planning stage notice, the absence of a defined procedure type and code, and a liable person, represents a structural data deficiency. Deadlines for preliminary market engagement are reasonable, and CPV codes are appropriately assigned.

The description of the need for a new cloud-based finance system is clear and unambiguous. Requirements for the preliminary market engagement are well-documented and understandable, explicitly stating what is and isn't specified at this stage. However, formal evaluation criteria are not yet defined.

Most basic information, including title, reference, organization, estimated value, duration, and location (NUTS code), is provided. However, the tender record is incomplete regarding the formal procedure type, code, and liable person. Detailed evaluation criteria are also absent.

The estimated value is disclosed, and the preliminary requirements are generic, not tailored. However, the lack of e-submission support is a significant barrier to equal access and fairness. The absence of specified evaluation criteria also introduces uncertainty regarding the objectivity of future assessments.

The lack of electronic submission is a major practical drawback in modern procurement. While the contract start date and duration are specified, the absence of e-submission hinders ease of participation.

Key fields are largely populated, and dates are logical and consistent, indicating a well-structured planning phase. The absence of disputes or suspensions is positive. The main inconsistencies are the empty 'Type', 'Procedure', and 'Liable Person' fields.

There is no explicit mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus within the provided tender information. This indicates a lack of integration of sustainability criteria at this preliminary stage.
