Legal Compliance100/100
The tender description references the Forensic Science Regulators Code of Practice (2025), indicating an intent for regulatory alignment. However, without full tender documents, it's impossible to verify compliance with national procurement laws regarding transparency, competition, and detailed requirement specification. The lack of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds in the provided extract is also a concern.
•Absence of full tender documents prevents verification of compliance with national procurement regulations.
•Lack of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds in the provided extract.
Clarity40/100
The description provides a clear overview of the framework's scope and objectives, including what is excluded (case management systems). The extracted requirements are generally clear in their intent. However, the absence of full tender documents means that detailed specifications, terms, and conditions, which are crucial for clarity, are missing.
•Lack of detailed specifications, terms, and conditions due to missing tender documents.
•Ambiguity regarding how 'Innovation Focus' and 'Social Criteria' will be evaluated without specific criteria.
Completeness83/100
This is the weakest point. The tender information provided is severely incomplete due to the complete absence of any attached documents. Essential components like detailed specifications, evaluation criteria, contract terms, submission instructions, and full legal requirements are missing.
•Complete absence of tender documents (specifications, draft contract, evaluation criteria, submission forms).
•Missing evaluation criteria, making it impossible for bidders to understand how their proposals will be judged.
Fairness60/100
The open procedure and the stated intent to include 'all suppliers' of relevant tools suggest a commitment to fairness. However, the lack of detailed documentation, especially evaluation criteria, creates a significant risk of unfairness and lack of transparency. Without clear criteria, the procurement process can be perceived as arbitrary.
•Absence of evaluation criteria undermines transparency and fairness, potentially leading to arbitrary decisions.
•Lack of detailed requirements and terms could disadvantage bidders who cannot anticipate the full scope.
Practicality40/100
The concept of a framework for digital forensic tools is practical for policing and agencies. The exclusion of case management systems helps focus the scope. However, the practical execution of this tender is severely hampered by the lack of documentation. Bidders cannot practically prepare a comprehensive and compliant bid without detailed specifications, evaluation criteria, and submission guidelines.
•Bidders cannot practically prepare a compliant bid without detailed tender documents.
•The absence of evaluation criteria makes it impractical for bidders to tailor their proposals effectively.
Data Consistency100/100
Within the provided text, the information appears consistent. The description aligns with the extracted requirements. However, the overall consistency cannot be fully assessed without the actual tender documents.
•Limited scope for consistency check due to the absence of full tender documents.
Sustainability50/100
The tender mentions 'Social Criteria' but provides no details on how these will be defined, measured, or evaluated. There is no explicit mention of environmental or broader sustainability aspects (e.g., green procurement).
•'Social Criteria' are mentioned without specific details or evaluation methods.
•No explicit mention of environmental sustainability or green procurement aspects.
