Original Tender Description

The Council is undertaking the refurbishment and extension of Doon Academy including the Leisure Centre under a Design and Build Contract.

The anticipated construction value is 29m GBP (net construction costs). The Contract Period is anticipated to be 148 calendar weeks; however, this will be confirmed at ITT stage.

Tender Quality Score

This tender for the refurbishment and extension of Doon Academy is generally well-structured, with clear project scope and financial information. However, it lacks specific evaluation criteria and details on e-submission, impacting its overall practicality and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender appears to comply with general procurement regulations, including the provision of a CPV code and a clear procedure type. Deadlines are provided, though their reasonableness is not fully assessed without knowing the full scope of required documentation. No disputes are noted.

Clarity80/100

The description of the project, including the scope of refurbishment, extension, and demolition, is clear. The requirements for Design and Build capability and specific technical experience (refurbishment, demolition, asbestos handling) are well-defined. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria introduces some ambiguity.

Missing evaluation criteria
Completeness70/100

Most basic information is present, including title, organization, estimated value, and CPV code. The contract duration is stated as anticipated but will be confirmed at ITT, which is a minor omission. The primary concern is the lack of accessible content for the tender documents.

No document content available
Fairness85/100

The tender is open to any capable bidder, and the estimated value is disclosed. The requirements are generally objective, focusing on technical capability. The use of a restricted procedure is noted. The lack of specified evaluation criteria could be perceived as a minor fairness concern.

Practicality65/100

The tender specifies e-procurement as a characteristic, but the 'Issues' section notes 'No e-submission', which is contradictory and requires clarification. The contract start date is not specified, and financing information is absent. The duration is anticipated but not confirmed.

No e-submission (contradictory to characteristics)
Missing contract duration (confirmation pending)
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, value, and deadline are populated. The status is 'active', and no disputes are reported. Dates are logical, with the submission deadline well into the future from the date of the tender notice.

Sustainability50/100

There is no explicit mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation within the provided tender details. This suggests a lack of focus on these areas.

Not green procurement
No social criteria
