Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a good foundation of basic information and clearly defined requirements, but the critical absence of accessible tender documents and explicitly stated evaluation criteria significantly undermines its overall quality and transparency.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance70/100

The tender defines the procedure type, assigns a relevant CPV code, and includes standard mandatory exclusion and eligibility grounds. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. However, the lack of accessible tender documents and missing evaluation criteria pose significant legal compliance risks regarding transparency and fair process.

No evaluation criteria specified
No document content available for full legal verification
Clarity60/100

The service description and AI-extracted requirements are clear and understandable. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria and the full tender documents creates significant ambiguity for potential bidders regarding how their proposals will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria specified
No document content available
Completeness65/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and CPV code are present. The AI-extracted requirements cover key areas. Nevertheless, the tender is incomplete due to the lack of accessible full tender documents and the explicit absence of evaluation criteria.

No document content available
Missing evaluation criteria
Fairness60/100

The Open procedure, disclosed value, and characteristic of being 'Divided into Parts' are positive for fairness and competition. The requirements do not appear tailored to a specific company. However, the absence of evaluation criteria makes it impossible to assess objectivity and transparency, and the lack of document access hinders equal information for all bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
No document content available
Practicality55/100

E-Procurement is indicated, which is a positive aspect for practicality. The contract start date and duration are specified. However, the critical issue is the lack of a document URL and the inaccessibility of the full tender documents, making it practically impossible for bidders to prepare and submit a comprehensive proposal.

No document URL provided
No document content available
Data Consistency85/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are generally logical. There are no reported suspensions or disputes. A minor inconsistency exists between the 'E-Procurement' characteristic and the 'No e-submission' automated check.

Contradiction between 'E-Procurement' characteristic and 'No e-submission' automated check
Sustainability40/100

The tender is for social services, which inherently has a social aspect. However, the automated checks explicitly state 'Not green procurement,' 'No social criteria,' and 'No innovation focus,' indicating a lack of explicit integration of broader sustainability considerations beyond the core service provision.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit innovation focus

Strengths

Clear service description and well-defined AI-extracted requirements
Open procedure, value disclosed, and division into parts promote competition
Standard legal exclusion and eligibility grounds are included
E-Procurement is indicated as a characteristic

Concerns

No access to full tender documents, severely limiting bidder information
Missing evaluation criteria, impacting transparency and fairness
Lack of explicit sustainability (green, social beyond service, innovation) criteria
Contradiction regarding e-submission/e-procurement

Recommendations

1. Immediately publish all tender documents to ensure full transparency and enable bidder participation.
2. Clearly define and publish the evaluation criteria and their weighting.
3. Consider integrating explicit sustainability, social, and innovation criteria where relevant.
