Tender Quality Score

This tender for the Little Petherick Viaduct Refurbishment is generally well-structured with clear requirements and a disclosed evaluation methodology. However, it lacks specific details on evaluation criteria and sustainability aspects.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender appears to comply with general procurement regulations, including the use of a proper CPV code and an open competition procedure. Deadlines are provided, though the submission deadline might be considered tight given the scope. No disputes are indicated. The procedure is 'Below threshold - open competition', which implies certain regulatory flexibilities.

Clarity80/100

The description of the works is clear, outlining the scope of refurbishment, the contract type (NEC3), and the collaborative approach expected. Key requirements for experience and qualifications are specified. The evaluation split (70% Price, 30% Quality) is also clear.

Completeness70/100

Most basic information is present, including title, reference, organization, estimated value, contract duration, and start date. The CPV code is provided. However, the 'Full Scope of Works' is mentioned as attached but its content is not summarized, and specific evaluation criteria beyond the price/quality split are missing.

No document content available
Fairness85/100

The tender is open competition, and the estimated value is disclosed. The evaluation criteria are partially disclosed (70% Price, 30% Quality), which is a good indicator of fairness. Requirements are generally objective, focusing on experience and capability. Access to documents requires expressing interest, which is standard.

Practicality65/100

The tender specifies a contract start date and duration. Financing information is not explicitly detailed, but the estimated value is provided. The primary concern is the lack of clear e-submission instructions beyond 'express an interest' and clicking a button, and the absence of a direct URL for the full tender package.

No e-submission
Document URL
Data Consistency90/100

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

Sustainability50/100

There is no explicit mention of green procurement, social aspects, innovation, or EU funding in the provided tender details. This suggests a lack of focus on these areas.

Not green procurement
No social criteria
