AFBI - Sustainable Livestock Systems – Supply and delivery of Multi-Gas Analysers

This tender for Multi-Gas Analysers presents a clear technical need but suffers from significant deficiencies in transparency, completeness, and practical accessibility, particularly concerning evaluation criteria and electronic submission. The extremely tight delivery deadline also raises concerns about fairness and potential tailoring.

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes appropriately, and there are no reported disputes. However, the AI-extracted information explicitly notes the absence of specific mandatory exclusion grounds, which is a significant legal omission based on the provided content.

The core description of the required Multi-Gas Analysers and their purpose is clear. However, the tender lacks specified evaluation criteria, and eligibility requirements are vaguely defined, referring only to a 'Specification Schedule' without further detail.

Basic information, estimated value, and key dates are provided. However, the tender is incomplete due to the absence of specified evaluation criteria, detailed financial requirements, and comprehensive eligibility conditions.

The lack of specified evaluation criteria severely compromises the objectivity and transparency of the selection process. Furthermore, the absence of e-submission capabilities creates an unequal playing field, and the extremely tight delivery deadline (37 days from submission to full delivery, installation, and commissioning) strongly suggests potential tailoring to a specific supplier with immediate availability.

The tender lacks support for electronic submission, which is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement. A direct document URL is also not provided, potentially hindering easy access to full tender documents.

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logically consistent, although the delivery timeline is very aggressive. There are no reported suspensions or disputes. The estimated value in EUR and GBP summaries are consistent.

The tender does not include any explicit green procurement, social, or innovation criteria, nor is it indicated as EU-funded, suggesting a missed opportunity to integrate sustainability objectives.
