Legal Compliance100/100
The contracting authority explicitly states it is not bound by UK procurement legislation, operating voluntarily outside the statutory framework. While it aims to align with PA23 objectives, this disclaimer removes legal recourse and protection typically afforded to bidders in public procurement.
•Explicit non-binding nature to UK procurement legislation.
•Lack of statutory legal framework for the procurement process.
Clarity40/100
The description of the service is clear, but the overall clarity of the procurement process is severely compromised by the absence of detailed requirements and supporting documents. Tenderers lack essential information to understand the full scope, evaluation criteria, and contractual terms.
•Absence of detailed technical specifications.
•Lack of clear evaluation criteria.
Completeness83/100
The tender is highly incomplete. Critical sections such as mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, detailed technical capabilities, financial requirements, and crucially, all supporting documents are missing. This makes it impossible for potential bidders to prepare a comprehensive and compliant offer.
•No documents attached.
•Missing mandatory exclusion grounds.
Fairness60/100
The absence of detailed requirements, evaluation criteria, and a binding legal framework raises significant concerns about fairness and equal treatment. Without clear rules, the process is susceptible to arbitrary decisions, potentially favoring pre-selected suppliers or those with insider knowledge.
•Lack of clear and objective evaluation criteria.
•Absence of a binding legal framework to ensure fair treatment.
Practicality40/100
From a bidder's perspective, preparing a tender for this procurement is highly impractical due to the severe lack of information. Without detailed specifications, terms, and evaluation criteria, bidders cannot accurately scope the work, estimate costs, or assess risks. This will likely deter qualified bidders or lead to non-comparable submissions.
•Insufficient information for bidders to prepare a comprehensive offer.
•High risk of non-comparable bids due to lack of detail.
Data Consistency100/100
The provided data is internally consistent, but its limited scope makes a thorough consistency check difficult. The main inconsistency is the stated intent to align with PA23 objectives while explicitly disclaiming legal adherence, which creates a philosophical rather than data-level inconsistency.
Sustainability0/100
There is no mention of green procurement, social criteria, or innovation focus within the provided information. This indicates a complete absence of sustainability considerations in the tender design.
•No green procurement criteria.
•No social criteria.
