Community Farm and Skills Hub

This tender represents a socially and environmentally ambitious project with a clear vision, but its procedural execution, particularly regarding transparency and information accessibility, is significantly lacking.

The tender lacks a clearly defined formal procedure type and the estimated value is classified, which are significant legal compliance gaps. Documents are only available upon request via email, which is not standard for transparent procurement, even for below-threshold procedures.

While the project's vision and objectives are clearly articulated, the absence of explicit evaluation criteria and the need to request a 'full information pack' for detailed requirements significantly reduce the overall clarity of the tender for potential bidders.

Key information, such as the full tender documentation and detailed evaluation criteria, is not directly provided in the public notice. The classified estimated value also impacts the completeness of the financial overview.

Fairness is significantly compromised by the lack of direct document access, the classified estimated value, and the absence of explicit and transparent evaluation criteria. The lack of e-procurement further creates barriers to equal access.

The tender's practicality is hindered by the absence of an e-submission platform and the requirement to request documents via email, which adds administrative steps. The classified financing information also limits practical understanding of the project's financial scope.

Most core data points, such as deadlines and duration, are consistent. However, the 'Type', 'Procedure', and 'Liable Person' fields are unpopulated, indicating minor data entry gaps.

The tender demonstrates an excellent commitment to sustainability, explicitly integrating green procurement principles, strong social aspects (community involvement, education, wellbeing), and an innovative approach to urban development.
