Purchase of sports footwear

This tender for sports shoe acquisition is severely hampered by restricted document access and a lack of critical information, making it difficult for potential bidders to prepare and compromising transparency and fairness.

The open procedure is a positive aspect for competition. However, restricted document access and the absence of disclosed estimated value and evaluation criteria raise significant concerns regarding transparency, equal treatment, and compliance with public procurement principles. The incorrect CPV code is also a compliance issue.

Clarity is critically low due to restricted document access and the lack of extracted content for key documents, particularly 'Iepirkuma priekšmeta prasības, 1.versija'. The summaries provided for exclusion, eligibility, financial, and technical requirements are generic, forcing bidders to rely on inaccessible full documents. The CPV code is also misleading.

Based on the provided summaries and access issues, the tender information is highly incomplete. Essential details such as the estimated value, specific technical specifications, detailed eligibility and exclusion grounds, financial requirements, and crucially, evaluation criteria, are either missing or inaccessible.

Fairness is significantly compromised by restricted document access, which prevents all potential bidders from having equal access to essential tender information. The absence of disclosed evaluation criteria further undermines the principle of equal treatment and transparency.

The restricted document access makes it highly impractical for potential bidders to understand the requirements, prepare a compliant bid, and assess the feasibility of participation. The absence of e-submission is a minor practical drawback.

There is a major data inconsistency with the CPV code. Code '3' (Agricultural, farming, fishing, forestry and related products) is entirely unrelated to 'Sporta apavu iegāde' (Acquisition of sports shoes).

The tender does not indicate any focus on green procurement, social criteria, or innovation, which are increasingly important aspects of modern public procurement.
