Tender Quality Score

This tender for Mental Health Floating Support Services is clear in its service description but suffers from significant gaps in explicit legal, financial, and eligibility requirements, and critically lacks evaluation criteria, impacting fairness and completeness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance55/100

The tender explicitly states that no specific mandatory exclusion grounds or eligibility requirements are mentioned in the provided information, which are fundamental for legal compliance. The 'Liable Person' field is also empty. While the procedure type and CPV code are correctly assigned, these omissions represent significant gaps.

Missing explicit mandatory exclusion grounds
Missing explicit eligibility requirements
Clarity60/100

The service description and technical capability requirements are clear and unambiguous. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria is a major clarity issue, making it difficult for bidders to understand how their proposals will be assessed.

Missing evaluation criteria
Completeness50/100

While basic information, value, duration, and documents are provided, the tender is significantly incomplete due to the explicit absence of mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, financial requirements, and evaluation criteria in the provided summary. The 'Liable Person' field is also unpopulated.

Missing explicit mandatory exclusion grounds
Missing explicit eligibility requirements
Fairness45/100

The lack of explicit evaluation criteria severely compromises fairness and transparency, as bidders cannot objectively prepare their proposals. The absence of an electronic submission option also limits equal access. Furthermore, the missing explicit eligibility and financial requirements create an opaque bidding environment.

Missing evaluation criteria
No e-submission
Practicality65/100

The absence of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement. However, the contract start date and duration are clearly specified, and financing information (estimated value) is available.

No e-submission
Data Consistency85/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates (submission, contract start, duration) are logical and consistent. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. Minor inconsistencies include the empty 'Liable Person' field and missing codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'.

Empty 'Liable Person' field
Empty 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes
Sustainability60/100

The service itself, focusing on mental health support, independent living, and social inclusion, inherently addresses significant social aspects. However, the tender does not explicitly include green procurement criteria or an innovation focus, nor is it EU funded.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit innovation focus
