Tender Quality Score

This tender for refrigeration and air conditioning services provides a clear service description and utilizes e-procurement, but critically lacks specified evaluation criteria and detailed requirements, significantly impacting fairness and clarity.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the restricted procedure and uses an appropriate CPV code. However, the absence of a reveal date and a specific procedure code for 'Restricted' is a minor data gap. No disputes or suspensions are noted, indicating compliance with basic procedural status.

Missing reveal date
Missing procedure code for 'Restricted' type
Clarity50/100

While the service description is clear and AI-extracted requirement categories are understandable, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria makes it extremely difficult for bidders to understand how their proposals will be assessed, leading to ambiguity.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness50/100

Basic information, deadlines, value, and duration are provided. However, the tender lacks detailed specifications for eligibility, technical, and financial requirements (only categories are listed), and crucially, evaluation criteria are entirely missing.

Missing detailed requirements (only categories listed)
No evaluation criteria specified
Fairness40/100

The tender benefits from disclosed value and e-procurement, promoting accessibility. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria is a significant fairness concern, as it introduces subjectivity and severely reduces transparency in the selection process.

No evaluation criteria specified
Practicality65/100

E-procurement is supported, which enhances accessibility for bidders. However, the contract start date is not specified, and a direct document URL is not explicitly provided, though implied by the OCDS data package. The automated check's contradiction on e-submission is noted, but the 'Characteristics' section is prioritized.

Contract start date not specified
Direct document URL not explicitly provided
Data Consistency70/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. However, the 'Liable Person' field is empty, the procedure code for 'Restricted' is missing, the reveal date is absent, and there's a currency mismatch (EUR for a UK tender), indicating data entry inconsistencies.

Missing 'Liable Person'
Missing procedure code
Sustainability30/100

The tender does not include any explicit green procurement criteria, social aspects, or innovation focus, indicating a lack of emphasis on broader sustainability goals.

No social criteria
