Legal Compliance100/100
The tender demonstrates an awareness of legal obligations by mentioning mandatory exclusion grounds (though not explicitly detailed in the extract) and TUPE Employee Liability Information. The requirement for the contract to be executed as a deed also highlights legal considerations for bidders.
Clarity40/100
The description of the Hertfordshire Growth Hub service and its objectives is clear and well-defined. The process for expressing interest and accessing documents via the e-tendering system is also clearly outlined. However, the absence of detailed technical specifications and evaluation criteria in this extract reduces overall clarity for potential bidders.
Completeness83/100
The provided extract is significantly incomplete for a comprehensive tender. Key elements such as the full tender documents, detailed financial requirements (beyond the estimated value), specific mandatory exclusion grounds, and crucially, the evaluation criteria are missing. This makes it challenging for bidders to fully understand the scope and assessment methodology.
•No full tender documents provided in the extract.
•Missing detailed evaluation criteria.
Fairness60/100
The use of an open procedure generally promotes fair competition. However, the critical absence of explicit evaluation criteria in the provided extract raises significant concerns about transparency and fairness in the assessment process. Without clear criteria, potential suppliers cannot prepare competitive offers effectively, and the evaluation risks being subjective.
•Missing detailed evaluation criteria, which can lead to subjective assessment and hinder fair competition.
Practicality40/100
The e-tendering system for expressing interest and submitting bids is practical. However, the short contract duration of 12 months for a complex service requiring 'seamless coordination, alignment and collaboration' might pose practical challenges for a new provider to establish and deliver effectively. The requirement for independent legal advice regarding the contract as a deed adds a practical step for bidders.
•Short contract duration (12 months) for a complex service may limit long-term planning and investment by the provider.
•Requirement for independent legal advice on contract execution as a deed adds a burden for bidders.
