Youth Vaping and Smoking Cessation Service

This tender for a youth vaping and smoking cessation service is well-described in its objectives and technical requirements, but suffers from critical omissions regarding evaluation criteria and mandatory exclusion grounds, alongside a significant error in the provided documentation.

The tender lacks information on mandatory exclusion grounds, which is a fundamental legal requirement. Furthermore, one of the listed tender documents has a summary pertaining to a completely different contract, indicating a significant administrative error. The procedure type and CPV code are correctly defined.

While the service description and technical requirements are clear and well-articulated, the tender critically fails to specify any evaluation criteria. This omission leaves potential bidders without essential information on how their proposals will be assessed.

Key basic information like title, reference, organization, value, and deadlines are present. However, the tender is incomplete due to the absence of mandatory exclusion grounds and, most critically, evaluation criteria. The presence of an irrelevant document summary also detracts from overall completeness.

The complete absence of evaluation criteria severely compromises the fairness and transparency of the procurement process, as bidders cannot objectively prepare their submissions. There is also a contradiction regarding e-submission capabilities, which could impact equal access.

The contract start date and duration are clearly specified. However, the lack of a direct document URL and the conflicting information regarding e-submission capabilities (E-Procurement listed but 'No e-submission' flagged) present practical hurdles for potential bidders.

There are significant inconsistencies, most notably the summary of 'Document 1' referring to an entirely different contract. A contradiction exists between the 'E-Procurement' characteristic and the 'No e-submission' flag. Minor fields like 'Liable Person' and procedure codes are also unpopulated.

The service itself addresses a significant social issue (youth vaping/smoking cessation), providing inherent social value. However, the tender does not explicitly incorporate additional green procurement, innovation, or broader social clauses beyond the core service delivery.
