Original Tender Description

DWP Estates is embarking on the delivery of the Estates 2030 Strategy and Vision, which will incorporate a new Estates 2030 Strategic Procurement Pipeline Optimisation Programme (SPPOP). The Estates 2030 Strategic Procurement Pipeline Optimisation Programme is a DWP Estates led strategic transformation programme that will support a series of future reprocurements and ensure alignment with the design and development of a new and evolving Target Operating Model, incorporating a review of the internal DWP Estates organisation and ways of working. This programme will undertake a comprehensive review of the significant and complex Estates strategic procurement pipeline to ensure the supply chain is best organised and strategically placed to support the delivery of the DWP Estates 2030 strategy. It will incorporate Estates internal operating model considerations, capability mapping, assessment and future structure (insource/outsource analysis), mobilising new services that are insourced to DWP efficiently and effectively as required. At the heart of this programme, a key objective will be to design, deliver, transition and stabilise the movement from the second iteration of the DWP Estates Integrator Model services to the future service design, based on the most effective use of technology, data and innovation through market analysis. This will include Subject Matter Expertise to provide input into the Delivery Model Assessment (DMA) for the current integrator contract and providing support on a potential reprocurement and mobilisation of the new service. Due to the varied, specialist nature and scope of services required for this Programme, the Department require a procurement for external strategic advice and support across a number of areas including: - End to end Target Operating Model Design (in the context of a Real Estate, Property and Workplace Management environment) - Real Estate and Property expertise - Market Insight, Commercial and Procurement Support - Technology and Data specialism - Data, Management, Business Intelligence and Insights in the context of Real Estate, Property and Workplace Management Environment - Systems Strategic Design and Integration - Organisational Design, development & Review - Change Management - Cost and Finance - Contract Transition Support (Mobilisation, Demobilisation and Transition) - Programme Management Assurance and Support The supplier will be required to have a flexible approach to the delivery of this contract, and the Department may, at its sole discretion, choose to call upon any of the service lines listed above, at any time during the Contract Term. The Department shall not be required to maintain a minimum level of usage or commitment across any Service Line. Charges shall only apply to Service Lines that are actively engaged.

Tender Quality Score

This tender outlines a significant strategic transformation program with a clear description of services, but suffers from critical omissions regarding evaluation criteria and e-submission, impacting transparency and accessibility.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code, though the latter appears somewhat narrow for the broad scope of services. A significant concern is the missing reveal date, which hinders a full assessment of the submission period's reasonableness, and the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria, which is a fundamental requirement for legal compliance and transparency.

Missing reveal date
No evaluation criteria specified
Clarity80/100

The project description is highly detailed and clear, outlining the program's objectives and the extensive range of required service lines. The AI-extracted technical requirements are also clear. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly diminishes the clarity of the bidding and selection process for potential suppliers.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness70/100

The tender provides essential information such as title, reference, organization, estimated value, duration, and a detailed description of services. However, it lacks explicit evaluation criteria, specific financial solvency requirements, and mandatory exclusion grounds beyond a generic statement. Key fields like 'Liable Person' and procedure codes are also unpopulated.

No evaluation criteria specified
Missing explicit financial solvency requirements
Fairness85/100

The tender benefits from full document access and disclosed value. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria severely compromises the objectivity and transparency of the selection process, raising significant fairness concerns. The lack of e-submission also presents an unnecessary barrier to equal access for all potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
No e-submission
Practicality65/100

The tender clearly specifies the contract start date and duration. However, the lack of electronic submission support is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders and the contracting authority.

No e-submission
Data Consistency90/100

Most key fields are populated, and the dates provided (submission deadline, contract start) are logical and consistent. However, the absence of a reveal date, 'Liable Person', and specific procedure codes, along with the critical missing evaluation criteria, indicates some data gaps.

Missing reveal date
Missing 'Liable Person'
Sustainability50/100

The tender does not explicitly incorporate green procurement, social aspects, or innovation as specific criteria for the procurement process itself. While the program's objectives mention leveraging technology and innovation, these are not framed as sustainability requirements for the supplier selection.

Not green procurement
No social criteria
