Tender Quality Score

This tender, currently in a 'planned' status, provides basic information but suffers from significant deficiencies in detailed requirements, particularly the complete absence of evaluation criteria, mandatory exclusion grounds, and financial requirements. The lack of crucial information for bidders, coupled with no e-submission and no sustainability focus, indicates a low-quality tender process at this stage.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance55/100

The absence of detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, financial requirements, and especially evaluation criteria are significant legal compliance issues for an open procedure. While the tender is 'planned', these are fundamental elements that should be outlined.

Missing mandatory exclusion grounds
Missing financial requirements
Clarity45/100

While the general description of the procurement is clear, the AI-extracted requirements are high-level and lack detail. Crucially, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria severely impacts the clarity for potential bidders.

Missing detailed eligibility, technical, financial, and submission requirements
No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness40/100

Basic information like title, reference, organization, value, and duration is present. However, the critical lack of detailed requirements (exclusion, eligibility, financial, technical, submission) and evaluation criteria makes this tender highly incomplete for bidders to prepare a proper response.

Missing detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, financial, technical, and submission requirements
No evaluation criteria specified
Fairness45/100

The complete absence of evaluation criteria is a major fairness issue, as bidders cannot understand how their proposals will be judged. Additionally, the lack of e-submission reduces equal access and transparency for all potential suppliers.

No evaluation criteria specified
No e-submission
Practicality60/100

The lack of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement. While key dates are specified, the overall practical ease of participation is hampered by missing detailed requirements and the absence of e-submission.

No e-submission
Data Consistency85/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical and consistent. Minor gaps include an empty 'Liable Person' field and missing procedure codes, but these do not significantly impact overall data consistency.

Missing 'Liable Person'
Empty procedure codes
Sustainability20/100

The tender explicitly lacks any focus on sustainability, including green procurement, social aspects, or innovation criteria. This indicates a missed opportunity to incorporate modern procurement best practices.

Not green procurement
No social criteria

Concerns

Absence of detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, financial, and technical requirements
