Tender Quality Score

This tender is moderately deficient due to critical documents being inaccessible and the absence of evaluation criteria, significantly impacting transparency and fairness. While basic information is present and e-submission is supported, it requires substantial improvements in documentation and process definition.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance60/100

The tender lacks specified mandatory exclusion grounds, which is a significant legal compliance issue. The 'Competitive flexible procedure' is vaguely defined, and the missing reveal date hinders full timeline assessment. The failure to download the official PDF also prevents a comprehensive legal review.

Missing mandatory exclusion grounds
Vague 'Competitive flexible procedure' definition
Clarity65/100

While the service description and AI-extracted requirements are clear, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria severely impacts the clarity for potential bidders. The inability to access the full tender document (PDF) further reduces overall clarity.

No evaluation criteria specified
Official PDF document failed to download
Completeness55/100

Basic information like title, reference, organization, value, and duration are present. However, the tender is incomplete due to the missing evaluation criteria, unspecified mandatory exclusion grounds, and the failure to download two critical documents (Official PDF, OCDS Record).

No evaluation criteria specified
No mandatory exclusion grounds specified
Fairness45/100

Fairness is significantly compromised by the lack of specified evaluation criteria, making the assessment process opaque. The inability to access the full tender documents (Official PDF, OCDS Record) creates an unequal playing field for potential bidders. Requirements do not appear tailored to a specific company.

No evaluation criteria specified
Critical tender documents (Official PDF, OCDS Record) failed to download
Practicality65/100

Electronic submission is indicated as supported, and key dates (contract start, duration) are provided. However, the practical execution for bidders is severely hampered by the failure to download essential tender documents, making it difficult to prepare a compliant bid.

Official PDF and OCDS Record documents failed to download
Data Consistency75/100

Most key fields are populated, and there are no disputes or suspensions. However, the 'Liable Person' field is empty, and specific codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure' are missing. There is a minor inconsistency in the submission deadline time/date between the basic info and AI-extracted submission requirements.

Empty 'Liable Person' field
Missing specific codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'
Sustainability25/100

The tender does not include any explicit green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not EU funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear description of services required
Estimated value and contract duration are specified
CPV code is appropriately assigned
Electronic tendering site usage is outlined for submission

Concerns
