Tender Quality Score

This tender presents significant data inconsistencies and a lack of crucial process details, notably evaluation criteria, which severely impacts its legal compliance, fairness, and overall quality, despite a clear project description.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance40/100

The tender suffers from a missing reveal date and critical inconsistencies in submission deadlines across different documents (June 28/29 vs. February 16), posing a significant legal risk. Additionally, some procedure codes are undefined.

Missing reveal date
Inconsistent submission deadlines across documents
Clarity60/100

While the project description and AI-extracted requirements are clear and detailed, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria makes the tender process opaque and unclear for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness60/100

Basic information, value, and duration are provided, and documents are available. However, the tender is incomplete due to the critical omission of evaluation criteria and the liable person's details.

No evaluation criteria specified
Liable Person not specified
Fairness40/100

The lack of transparent evaluation criteria is a major impediment to fairness, as it can lead to subjective assessment. The absence of e-submission also limits equal access for all potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
No e-submission
Practicality65/100

The tender lacks support for electronic submission, which is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement. Other practical aspects like contract duration and start date are provided, though the start date is illogical.

No e-submission
Contract start date is illogical (same as RTP deadline)
Data Consistency30/100

There are critical inconsistencies in the submission deadlines mentioned across different tender documents (June 28/29 vs. February 16). Furthermore, the contract start date matching the Request to Participate submission deadline is illogical.

Major inconsistencies in submission deadlines across documents
Contract start date is illogical (same as RTP deadline)

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria
