Tender Quality Score

This tender for agricultural machinery servicing and maintenance is generally well-structured, with clear basic information and a reasonable estimated value. However, it lacks explicit evaluation criteria and details on sustainability aspects.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender follows an open procedure and specifies a CPV code. Deadlines appear reasonable within the context of the provided information, and there are no immediate indications of disputes. Regulatory compliance is assumed based on the presence of standard tender elements.

Clarity80/100

The description of services required is clear, outlining the scope and locations. The AI-extracted requirements are also well-defined, making the core needs understandable. However, the absence of explicit evaluation criteria leaves some ambiguity on how bids will be assessed.

Missing evaluation criteria
Completeness70/100

Most basic information such as title, organization, estimated value, and contract duration is present. However, the lack of content for the tender documents is a significant omission, hindering a full assessment of completeness. The AI-extracted requirements are helpful but do not substitute for official documentation.

No document content available
Fairness85/100

The tender is open, and the estimated value is disclosed. The criteria for site visit attendance are objective. There is no indication of requirements tailored to specific companies. The use of e-procurement is implied by the mention of 'etendersNI'.

Practicality65/100

The tender mentions 'etendersNI', suggesting an e-procurement platform, but the 'No e-submission' flag indicates a potential issue. The contract start date is provided. Financing information is not explicitly detailed, and while duration is specified, the lack of document content impacts practical preparation.

No e-submission
Missing financing information
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, value, and dates are populated. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. The dates provided (submission deadline, contract start) are logically sequenced.

Sustainability50/100

The tender does not explicitly mention any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not indicated as EU funded, which limits the sustainability score.

Not green procurement
No social criteria
