Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a clear description of the works but suffers from significant omissions regarding evaluation criteria and transparency, impacting fairness and completeness. While practical aspects like e-submission are supported, the lack of sustainability considerations is notable.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance70/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes appropriately, and there are no reported disputes. However, the absence of a reveal date, the classified estimated value, and the missing 'Liable Person' represent gaps in mandatory disclosure and transparency, slightly lowering the score.

Missing reveal date
Estimated value classified
Clarity50/100

The description of the works and the AI-extracted technical requirements are exceptionally clear and detailed. However, the critical omission of any specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces the overall clarity of the procurement process for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness55/100

Basic information, deadlines, duration, and location are well-provided, and documents are attached. Nevertheless, the tender is incomplete due to the absence of evaluation criteria, the classified estimated value, missing 'Liable Person' details, and unspecified procedure codes.

No evaluation criteria specified
Missing 'Liable Person'
Fairness40/100

While e-procurement is supported, the lack of specified evaluation criteria is a major concern for fairness, as it prevents objective and transparent assessment of bids. The classified estimated value also reduces transparency for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
Estimated value classified
Practicality70/100

Electronic submission via a dedicated portal is supported, and the contract start date and duration are clearly specified. Minor practical gaps include the absence of an explicit document URL (though implied by the portal) and detailed financing information.

Document URL not explicitly provided
Limited financing information beyond classified value
Data Consistency55/100

Several inconsistencies are present, such as the missing 'Liable Person' and procedure codes. Critically, the submission deadline and contract start date are identical, which is highly unusual and suggests a data entry error or process ambiguity. A minor discrepancy in the submission deadline time format was also noted.

Missing 'Liable Person'
Missing procedure codes
Sustainability10/100

The tender makes no mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation, indicating a complete absence of sustainability considerations in the procurement process.

No green procurement aspects mentioned
No social criteria mentioned
