Tender Quality Score

This tender provides basic information but suffers from significant gaps in detailed requirements, evaluation criteria, and data consistency, impacting its overall quality and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance55/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code, and no disputes are noted. However, the NUTS code (UKI41) is inconsistent with the service location (Shymkent, Kazakhstan), which is a significant legal/data error. The absence of explicit mandatory exclusion, eligibility, and financial requirements, along with missing evaluation criteria, raises concerns about full compliance with best procurement practices, even for a below-threshold tender. The missing reveal date also impacts transparency.

Inconsistent NUTS code (UKI41) with service location (Kazakhstan)
Missing explicit mandatory exclusion, eligibility, and financial requirements
Clarity40/100

While the overall description of seeking PTP exam venues is clear, the tender severely lacks detailed technical specifications for these venues. Crucially, evaluation criteria are not specified, making it impossible for bidders to understand how their proposals will be assessed. The AI-extracted requirements are very basic and do not provide sufficient detail for comprehensive proposals.

Missing detailed technical specifications for PTP exam venues
No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness50/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and deadlines are provided. However, the tender is incomplete regarding critical details like comprehensive technical specifications for the venues, explicit eligibility and financial requirements for bidders, and, most notably, the absence of evaluation criteria. The NUTS code inconsistency also points to incomplete accurate location data.

Missing detailed technical specifications for venues
Absence of explicit eligibility and financial requirements
Fairness45/100

The absence of specified evaluation criteria is a major fairness concern, as it allows for subjective assessment of proposals and reduces transparency. The lack of an electronic submission option also creates a barrier to equal access for all potential bidders. While requirements are generic, their lack of detail combined with missing evaluation criteria could lead to an unfair procurement outcome.

No evaluation criteria specified, leading to potential subjectivity
No electronic submission option
Practicality60/100

The tender specifies a contract start date and duration, which is practical. However, the absence of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders. The lack of detailed technical requirements also makes it practically challenging for bidders to formulate precise and competitive proposals.

No electronic submission supported
Lack of detailed requirements hinders practical proposal preparation
Data Consistency65/100

Most key fields are populated, and there are no reported disputes or suspensions. Dates are logical. However, a major inconsistency exists with the NUTS code (UKI41, UK) being assigned while the service location is clearly stated as Shymkent, Kazakhstan. A minor inconsistency is the estimated value being in EUR in one place and GBP in another without explicit conversion.

Inconsistent NUTS code (UKI41) with service location (Shymkent, Kazakhstan)
Minor currency inconsistency for estimated value
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not include any explicit green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not indicated as EU funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards. This represents a complete absence of sustainability considerations.

No green procurement criteria
No social aspects included

Strengths

Basic tender information (title, reference, organization, value, duration) is provided
Procedure type (open competition, below threshold) is clearly defined
CPV code is assigned and relevant
Contract start date and duration are specified
Estimated value is disclosed

Concerns

Missing detailed technical specifications for the required venues
Absence of explicit evaluation criteria, impacting fairness and transparency
Inconsistency between NUTS code (UK) and actual service location (Kazakhstan)
Lack of electronic submission option
Missing explicit mandatory exclusion, eligibility, and financial requirements

Recommendations

1. Publish a comprehensive tender document detailing technical specifications for venues, explicit eligibility/financial requirements, and clear, objective evaluation criteria.
2. Correct the NUTS code to accurately reflect the service location in Kazakhstan.
3. Implement an electronic submission system to enhance fairness, accessibility, and practicality for bidders.
