Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a clear scope of works for fire safety upgrades but suffers from significant transparency issues due to the undisclosed estimated value and, critically, the absence of evaluation criteria, which compromises fairness and clarity.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance80/100

The tender defines the procedure and CPV code appropriately, with no reported disputes. While the estimated value is classified, this is not necessarily a legal breach for a below-threshold tender. The summary does not explicitly state mandatory exclusion grounds, which ideally should be clear.

Estimated value classified
Mandatory exclusion grounds not explicitly stated in summary
Clarity60/100

The description of the scope of works and technical requirements is clear and detailed. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria makes it impossible for bidders to understand how their proposals will be assessed, significantly reducing clarity.

Missing evaluation criteria
Performance conditions not fully detailed
Completeness60/100

Basic information, deadlines, duration, and location are provided, and supporting documents are listed. However, the tender lacks the estimated value and, most importantly, the evaluation criteria, which are essential for a complete tender package.

Estimated value not disclosed
Missing evaluation criteria
Fairness50/100

The tender supports e-procurement and its technical requirements appear generic, not tailored. However, the classified estimated value reduces transparency, and the complete absence of evaluation criteria severely undermines the objectivity and transparency of the selection process, posing a significant fairness concern.

Missing evaluation criteria
Estimated value classified
Practicality70/100

Electronic submission is supported, and the contract start date and duration are clearly specified. The lack of a disclosed estimated value can make it challenging for potential bidders to accurately assess the required resources and prepare a competitive bid.

Estimated value not disclosed
Document URL not explicitly provided in summary
Data Consistency70/100

Key dates are logical and consistent, and there are no reported disputes or suspensions. However, some fields like "Liable Person," "Type (Code)," and "Procedure (Code)" are empty, and the estimated value is classified, indicating minor data gaps.

Liable Person field empty
Type (Code) and Procedure (Code) fields empty
Sustainability30/100

The tender does not explicitly incorporate any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. This represents a missed opportunity to align the procurement with broader sustainability goals.

No green procurement focus
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear and detailed scope of works
E-procurement enabled
Appropriate CPV code and procedure type
