Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a clear description of services but suffers from significant gaps in detailed quality evaluation criteria and the absence of electronic submission, impacting fairness and practicality.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes appropriately, and there are no disputes. While the reveal date is missing, the submission period from today's date is reasonable. The absence of specific mandatory exclusion grounds in the AI summary is a minor informational gap.

Missing specific mandatory exclusion grounds in AI summary
Clarity65/100

The service description and general requirements are clear. However, the critical lack of detailed criteria for evaluating the 70% quality component makes it difficult for bidders to understand how their proposals will be assessed, significantly reducing clarity.

Lack of detailed quality evaluation criteria
Completeness70/100

Most essential information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and deadlines are provided. However, the tender lacks detailed quality evaluation criteria and specific mandatory exclusion grounds in the AI summary, and some minor fields like 'Liable Person' are unpopulated.

Missing detailed quality evaluation criteria
Missing specific mandatory exclusion grounds in AI summary
Fairness55/100

The tender's fairness is significantly compromised by the absence of detailed quality evaluation criteria, which introduces subjectivity into the 70% quality assessment. Furthermore, the lack of electronic submission creates an unnecessary barrier and reduces equal access for potential bidders.

Lack of detailed quality evaluation criteria
No electronic submission (e-submission)
Practicality60/100

While contract duration and start date are clear, the absence of electronic submission is a major practical drawback, increasing administrative burden for all parties. Document URLs are implied but not explicitly provided in the snippet.

No electronic submission (e-submission)
Data Consistency80/100

The core data points, including dates and financial information, are consistent. Minor fields like 'Liable Person' and procedure codes are unpopulated. There is a slight ambiguity between the AI summary and automated checks regarding evaluation criteria, but this is interpretable.

Unpopulated 'Liable Person' field and procedure codes
Sustainability20/100

The tender completely lacks any mention or integration of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus, indicating a missed opportunity to align with modern sustainable procurement practices.

No green procurement aspects
No social criteria
