Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a clear project description and essential financial details, but suffers from significant deficiencies in transparency due to missing evaluation criteria and the absence of electronic submission.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance70/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code correctly. However, the absence of a clear reveal date and specified evaluation criteria presents a compliance risk regarding transparency and equal treatment. No disputes or suspensions are noted.

Missing reveal date
No evaluation criteria specified
Clarity65/100

The project description is clear and unambiguous regarding the scope of work. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria and the minimal AI-extracted requirements mean that bidders must refer to external documents for full clarity, which is a significant drawback.

Missing evaluation criteria
AI-extracted requirements are not comprehensive
Completeness65/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, and duration are well-specified. However, the tender is incomplete due to the missing evaluation criteria and the failure to download one of the listed documents, which could contain crucial information.

Missing evaluation criteria
One tender document download failed
Fairness60/100

The estimated value is disclosed, and the requirements, as described, do not appear tailored to a specific company. However, the lack of specified evaluation criteria and the absence of electronic submission significantly hinder transparency and equal access for all potential bidders.

Missing evaluation criteria
No e-submission
Practicality60/100

The contract start date and duration are clearly defined, which is practical for planning. Nevertheless, the absence of electronic submission is a major practical impediment in modern procurement, increasing administrative burden for bidders.

No e-submission
Data Consistency80/100

Key fields are generally populated, and dates are logical. Minor inconsistencies include an empty 'Liable Person' field and missing codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure', along with the missing reveal date, but these do not critically impact overall data integrity.

Empty 'Liable Person' field
Missing reveal date
