Tender Quality Score

This tender for accommodation with support for young people is generally well-structured, with clear objectives and a disclosed estimated value. However, critical details regarding evaluation criteria and full documentation access are missing from the initial notice, impacting completeness and clarity.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender follows an open procedure, which is standard. The CPV code is appropriate for the service. Deadlines are provided, though the submission deadline might be considered tight given the need to express interest and access full documentation. No disputes are reported. Regulatory compliance is assumed but not explicitly detailed in the notice.

Clarity80/100

The description of the service is clear, outlining the target group and the support required. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria in the initial notice reduces overall clarity for potential bidders. The process for accessing full documentation is described.

Missing evaluation criteria
Completeness70/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, estimated value, and contract duration are present. However, the full tender documentation is not directly accessible, requiring an 'Express Interest' step. Crucially, evaluation criteria are not detailed, leaving a significant gap in completeness for bidders to prepare their submissions.

Full documentation not directly accessible
Missing evaluation criteria
Fairness85/100

The tender is open, and the estimated value is disclosed, promoting transparency. The process requires expressing interest to access full documentation, which is a common but slightly less direct approach than immediate access. There are no apparent requirements tailored to specific companies, suggesting a fair process.

Practicality65/100

The tender utilizes an e-procurement portal for expressing interest and submitting questions. However, the initial notice does not provide a direct URL to the full documentation or specify the e-submission method for the final bid. The contract start date and duration are clear.

No direct URL to full documentation
E-submission method for final bid not specified
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, estimated value, and dates are populated logically. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. The dates provided for submission deadline, contract start, and duration are consistent.

Sustainability50/100

The tender notice does not explicitly mention any green procurement, social aspects, innovation, or EU funding requirements. This suggests a lack of focus on these areas within the initial information provided.

No explicit mention of green procurement
No explicit mention of social criteria
