Tender Quality Score

This tender for freelance graphic design services is well-structured with clear requirements and good practical details, but its quality is significantly hampered by the lack of access to full tender documents and the absence of explicit evaluation criteria. Sustainability aspects are largely overlooked.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender appears generally compliant with national procurement rules for a below-threshold open competition. The CPV code is appropriate, and there are no reported disputes. However, the actual reveal date is missing, which prevents a full assessment of the time provided to bidders from initial publication. Full legal compliance cannot be fully assessed without access to the complete tender documents.

Missing tender reveal date
Full legal clauses not accessible
Clarity80/100

The description of the required services, framework structure, and budget is clear and unambiguous. The AI-extracted requirements are well-defined. A significant drawback is the absence of explicit evaluation criteria, which are only vaguely referred to as 'highest scoring.'

No explicit evaluation criteria or their weighting provided
Completeness70/100

Basic information, financial details, and timeline are adequately provided. However, the critical absence of access to the 5 tender documents means essential details like Appendix B (pricing schedule) and full terms and conditions are unavailable for review, significantly impacting completeness.

No access to the content of the 5 tender documents
Appendix B details missing
Fairness65/100

The tender benefits from e-procurement and generally generic requirements, not appearing tailored. However, the lack of access to full tender documents and the absence of explicit, transparent evaluation criteria are significant fairness concerns, potentially hindering equal opportunity for all bidders. The missing reveal date also makes it difficult to ascertain if bidders had adequate time from the tender's initial publication.

No access to full tender documents
Evaluation criteria not specified
Practicality90/100

This tender scores highly on practicality. Electronic submission is supported via a provided portal link, the contract start date and duration are clear, and financing information is available.

Data Consistency95/100

Key fields are mostly populated, and dates are logical and consistent. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. Minor missing codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure' are negligible.

Minor missing codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'
Sustainability30/100

The tender does not explicitly incorporate green procurement, social aspects, or a formal innovation focus. While 'fresh ideas' are mentioned, it's not a weighted criterion. This represents a missed opportunity for promoting sustainable practices.

No explicit green, social, or formal innovation criteria
