Tender Quality Score

This tender for Specialist Paper is generally well-structured with clear objectives and a defined value. However, it lacks specific evaluation criteria and details on sustainability aspects.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender follows an open procedure, which is standard. The CPV code is appropriate. While deadlines are present, the submission deadline might be considered short given the need for registration and sample submission. No disputes are noted. Regulatory compliance is assumed but not explicitly detailed.

Potential for a short submission deadline given registration and sample requirements.
Clarity80/100

The description of the required specialist paper and its purpose is clear. The eligibility and technical capability requirements are well-defined. The submission process via the Atamis portal is clearly outlined. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria impacts overall clarity on how bids will be assessed.

Missing evaluation criteria.
Completeness70/100

Most basic information is present, including title, reference, organization, estimated value, duration, and start date. The CPV code is provided. However, the content of tender documents is not available, and specific details regarding the 'Sampling Information document (Appendix D)' are not fully elaborated within the provided text, impacting completeness.

No document content available for review.
Details on Appendix D (Sampling Information) are not fully elaborated.
Fairness85/100

The tender is open, and the value is disclosed. The use of an e-procurement portal (Atamis) promotes fairness. The criteria for eligibility and technical capability appear objective. There are no obvious requirements tailored to specific companies, suggesting a good level of fairness.

Practicality65/100

E-submission via Atamis is mandated, which is practical. A URL for registration is provided. The contract start date and duration are specified. However, financing information is not detailed, and the lack of accessible tender document content hinders practical assessment of the full scope.

Financing information not detailed.
Lack of accessible tender document content.
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, value, and dates are populated. There are no noted suspensions or disputes. The dates provided (submission deadline, contract start) are logically sequenced. The AI-extracted deadline of 12:00:00+01:00 differs slightly from the listed 11:00:00, which is a minor inconsistency.

Minor inconsistency in submission deadline time (11:00:00 vs 12:00:00+01:00).
Sustainability50/100

The description mentions 'responsibly sourced specialist paper types,' which is a positive step towards sustainability. However, there is no explicit mention of green procurement targets, social aspects, or innovation focus. The tender is not indicated as EU funded.

Lack of explicit green procurement targets.
No mention of social criteria or innovation focus.
