Original Tender Description

Cambridgeshire County Council will be inviting proposals for developing, running and analysing a resident engagement Quality of Life survey with the public. We would like to undertake this survey in 2026 and 2027 as part of our commitment to involve local people in shaping our services. The mainly quantitative survey will involve conducting a mixed methods survey work with residents across Cambridgeshire, comprising 5,500 interviews each year (1,100 in each of our five district areas). We anticipate the 2026 survey fieldwork to take place across May-July 2026 with reporting ready by end of August to feed into our business planning processes.

Tender Quality Score

This tender for Quality of Life Surveys demonstrates good clarity in service description and technical requirements but is significantly hampered by the complete absence of evaluation criteria and the lack of e-submission, impacting legal compliance, clarity, completeness, and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance65/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes correctly, and there are no disputes. However, the critical omission of evaluation criteria is a significant legal compliance issue regarding transparency and equal treatment. The 'Liable Person' field is empty, and the 'reveal date' is missing, which are minor compliance gaps.

Missing evaluation criteria
Missing reveal date
Clarity60/100

The description of the required service and the AI-extracted technical requirements are clear and unambiguous. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria is a major flaw, as bidders lack clarity on how their proposals will be assessed and what aspects to prioritize for success.

Missing evaluation criteria
Completeness65/100

Most basic information, including title, reference, organization, deadlines, value, duration, and location, is provided. Documents are attached. However, the tender is incomplete due to the critical absence of evaluation criteria and the empty 'Liable Person' field.

Missing evaluation criteria
Empty 'Liable Person' field
Fairness50/100

The estimated value is disclosed, and the technical requirements appear generic and not tailored to a specific company. However, the complete lack of evaluation criteria severely compromises fairness and transparency, as bidders cannot objectively prepare their proposals. The absence of e-submission also creates an unnecessary barrier to equal access.

Missing evaluation criteria
No e-submission
Practicality60/100

The contract start date, duration, and financing information are clearly specified. However, the lack of electronic submission support ('No e-submission') is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders and the contracting authority.

No e-submission
Data Consistency80/100

The core data fields, including dates, values, and descriptions, are logical and consistent. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. Minor inconsistencies include the empty 'Liable Person' field and the missing 'Code' for Type and Procedure, as well as the missing reveal date.

Empty 'Liable Person' field
Empty 'Type/Procedure Code'
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not explicitly incorporate any green procurement, social aspects (beyond the project's inherent goal of resident engagement), or innovation focus. It is also not EU funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria
