Tender Quality Score

This tender presents a clear project description and essential basic information, but it suffers from significant deficiencies in legal compliance, completeness, and fairness due to the absence of critical requirements and evaluation criteria.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance65/100

The tender clearly defines the procedure type and assigns an appropriate CPV code. However, the absence of specified mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, and financial requirements is a significant concern for legal compliance, despite the 'planning' status.

Missing mandatory exclusion grounds
Missing eligibility requirements
Clarity60/100

The project description and technical capability requirements are clear and unambiguous. Nevertheless, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria and other crucial requirement types (exclusion, eligibility, financial) severely diminishes the overall clarity for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
Absence of other key requirement types (eligibility, financial)
Completeness55/100

While basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and documents are provided, the tender is significantly incomplete due to the explicit absence of mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, financial requirements, and evaluation criteria.

Missing mandatory exclusion grounds
Missing eligibility requirements
Fairness50/100

The disclosed value and reasonable submission timeframe contribute positively to fairness. However, the critical absence of evaluation criteria and the lack of electronic submission capabilities significantly undermine the transparency and equal access for all potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
Lack of electronic submission (e-submission)
Practicality60/100

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

No electronic submission (e-submission)
Data Consistency85/100

The populated key fields are largely consistent, with logical dates for submission and contract duration. A minor discrepancy exists between the estimated value in EUR and the £8 million mentioned in one document, but this is not a major inconsistency.

Minor discrepancy in estimated value (EUR vs GBP in document)
Sustainability25/100

The tender does not include any explicit criteria or focus on green procurement, social aspects, or innovation, indicating a low commitment to sustainability principles within the procurement process.

No green procurement focus
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear project description
Estimated value disclosed
Appropriate CPV code provided

Concerns
