Tender Quality Score

This tender, a re-opening of an existing framework for vital health services, provides clear service descriptions but suffers from significant omissions regarding evaluation criteria and explicit financial/exclusion requirements.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender clearly defines the legal basis under UK/Wales Provider Selection Regime Regulations, and the procedure type and CPV codes are appropriate. The extended submission period is suitable for a dynamic framework. However, the explicit absence of mandatory exclusion grounds in the provided summary is a notable gap.

Mandatory exclusion grounds are not explicitly stated in the provided tender information.
Clarity60/100

The description of services, aims, and the framework structure is clear and unambiguous. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria is a major clarity issue, making it difficult for potential providers to understand how their applications will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria are specified.
Performance conditions are not detailed beyond general NHS standards.
Completeness65/100

Basic information like title, reference, organization, value, and duration is complete. However, the tender is incomplete due to the explicit absence of financial requirements, mandatory exclusion grounds, and, critically, evaluation criteria in the provided content.

No specific financial requirements are explicitly stated.
Mandatory exclusion grounds are not explicitly stated.
Fairness55/100

The requirements appear generic and not tailored, and the value is disclosed. E-procurement is enabled, promoting equal access. However, the complete lack of evaluation criteria significantly undermines fairness and transparency, as it leaves the assessment process open to subjective interpretation.

No evaluation criteria are specified, impacting transparency and objectivity.
Practicality65/100

Electronic submission is supported, and the contract duration is clearly specified. However, a direct document URL is not provided, and the exact commencement date for new providers joining the framework is not explicitly stated, which could affect planning.

No direct document URL is provided.
Exact contract start date for new providers is not explicitly stated.
Data Consistency90/100

The key fields are largely populated, and the dates are logical and consistent with the nature of a re-opened dynamic framework. There are no reported disputes or suspensions.

Liable Person field is empty.
Type and Procedure codes are empty.
Sustainability50/100

While the service itself addresses a significant social need, the tender does not explicitly incorporate broader sustainability criteria (environmental, social clauses beyond service delivery, or innovation focus) as part of the procurement process.

No explicit green procurement criteria.
No explicit social criteria beyond the inherent service benefit.

Strengths

Clear description of services and framework structure.
Explicitly states legal basis (UK/Wales PSR Regulations).
Value disclosed and E-Procurement enabled.
Requirements for eligibility and technical capability appear generic and well-defined.
Framework divided into three lots, promoting broader participation.

Concerns

Complete absence of specified evaluation criteria.
Lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds in the provided summary.
No specific financial requirements are explicitly stated.
Absence of explicit sustainability or innovation criteria.
No direct document URL provided.

Recommendations

1. Publish detailed evaluation criteria to ensure transparency and fairness for all applicants.
2. Clearly state all mandatory exclusion grounds and financial requirements within the tender documentation.
3. Include specific sustainability, social, and innovation criteria to align with modern procurement best practices.
