Tender Quality Score

This tender for footpath construction and upgrading is generally well-structured, with clear technical requirements and a disclosed budget. However, it lacks specific evaluation criteria and details on sustainability aspects.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender adheres to basic legal requirements by specifying a CPV code, organization, and procedure type. Deadlines are provided, though their reasonableness is not fully assessable without knowing the full document set. No disputes are indicated.

Clarity80/100

The description of the works at Bunkers Park and Chipperfield Common is clear, detailing the scope of path construction, resurfacing, and boardwalks. The eligibility and technical capability requirements are also reasonably well-defined.

Completeness70/100

Essential information such as title, reference, organization, estimated value, contract duration, and submission deadline are present. However, the absence of available tender document content limits a full assessment of completeness.

No document content available
Fairness85/100

The tender is open competition, and the estimated value is disclosed. The use of an e-procurement portal promotes fairness. Requirements are generally objective, focusing on technical capability rather than specific company attributes.

Practicality65/100

Submission is mandated via an e-procurement portal, which is a standard practice. However, the 'Checks' section notes 'No e-submission' which contradicts the description, creating ambiguity. The contract start date is provided.

Ambiguity regarding e-submission based on 'Checks' section
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields like title, reference, organization, value, and deadlines are populated. Dates appear logical, and there are no indications of suspension or disputes, contributing to good data consistency.

Sustainability50/100

The tender does not explicitly mention any green procurement, social aspects, innovation, or EU funding, which are common elements in modern tenders. This suggests a lack of focus on these areas.

No explicit mention of green procurement
No explicit mention of social aspects
