Tender Quality Score

This tender suffers from critical deficiencies, primarily the complete absence of processed tender documents and the lack of specified evaluation criteria, severely impacting its overall quality and fairness. While basic information is present, these omissions create significant barriers for potential bidders.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance60/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code correctly, and there are no disputes. However, the absence of a reveal date and, critically, the lack of specified evaluation criteria are significant legal compliance issues, undermining transparency and fair competition.

Missing reveal date
No evaluation criteria specified
Clarity55/100

The description and AI-extracted requirements are clear and understandable. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria makes it impossible for potential bidders to understand how their proposals will be judged, which is a fundamental flaw in clarity.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness40/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, deadlines, value, duration, and location are provided. However, the critical issue is that no tender document content is available (0 out of 4 processed), and evaluation criteria are missing, making the tender incomplete.

No document content available
No evaluation criteria specified
Fairness35/100

Fairness is severely compromised by the lack of access to tender document content and the absence of evaluation criteria, preventing objective assessment of bids. The lack of e-submission and the requirement for 'strong existing relationships' may also limit competition to established local entities.

No document content available
No evaluation criteria specified
Practicality50/100

The tender provides a clear contract start date and duration. However, the lack of electronic submission options and the unavailability of tender document content pose significant practical hurdles for interested parties.

No e-submission
No document content available
Data Consistency70/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates (submission, start, duration) are logical and consistent. However, some fields like 'Liable Person', 'Type Code', 'Procedure Code', and the 'reveal date' are missing, indicating minor data gaps.

Missing Liable Person
Missing Type Code
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not explicitly mention any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. This represents a missed opportunity to integrate broader public value considerations into the procurement process.

Not green procurement
No social criteria
