Tender Quality Score

This is an early-stage market engagement notice for forest spa experiences, offering good clarity on objectives but lacking specific procedural and evaluation details.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender is in its planning stage, which explains the absence of a formal procedure and detailed regulatory compliance. The CPV code provided (Sporting services) appears to be a mismatch for the described 'forest spa experiences', impacting legal compliance. Deadlines are stated, but there is no reveal date.

Mismatched CPV code
Missing reveal date
Clarity80/100

The description clearly outlines the vision for forest spa experiences, the organization's objectives, and the type of partners sought. The eligibility and submission requirements are well-articulated for this early engagement stage.

Completeness70/100

Key information like the estimated value, contract duration, and start date are present. However, the absence of formal procedure details, mandatory exclusion grounds, and financial requirements limits overall completeness for a typical tender.

No formal procedure specified
No mandatory exclusion grounds detailed
Fairness85/100

The tender is framed as an open market engagement to gauge interest, which is generally fair. Requirements are broad and value-driven, not tailored to specific companies. The process encourages innovative ideas from a wide range of potential partners.

Practicality65/100

The lack of information regarding e-submission methods or a document URL makes practical engagement difficult at this stage. While the contract duration and start date are provided, the absence of financing information and clear submission details impacts practicality.

No e-submission specified
No document URL provided
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, description, value, and dates are populated logically. There are no reported disputes or suspensions, contributing to strong data consistency.

Sustainability50/100

While the description mentions sustainability, environmental sensitivity, and nature-immersive experiences, there are no explicit 'green procurement' criteria or specific social aspects detailed. Innovation is encouraged but not a formal requirement. The tender is not stated as EU funded.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No specific social aspects detailed
