Tender Quality Score

This tender presents a clear scope of work for a complex project but suffers from significant gaps in crucial procurement documentation, particularly regarding evaluation criteria and detailed legal requirements.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines an open procedure and uses an appropriate CPV code. However, the absence of explicitly specified mandatory exclusion grounds and detailed eligibility requirements, along with a missing reveal date, raises concerns about full legal compliance and transparency.

Mandatory exclusion grounds not explicitly specified
Eligibility requirements not explicitly specified
Clarity70/100

The project description and technical capability requirements are clear and well-articulated. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly diminishes the overall clarity for potential bidders, making it difficult to understand how proposals will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria specified
Mandatory exclusion grounds and detailed eligibility requirements not explicitly specified
Completeness70/100

While basic information, financial details, duration, and location are provided, and documents are available, the tender is incomplete due to the lack of explicit evaluation criteria and fully detailed mandatory exclusion/eligibility requirements.

No evaluation criteria specified
Mandatory exclusion grounds and detailed eligibility requirements not fully specified
Fairness65/100

The tender's fairness is significantly compromised by the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria, which introduces subjectivity into the assessment process. The lack of e-submission also creates potential barriers to equal access for all bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
No e-submission supported
Practicality65/100

The tender specifies a clear contract start date and duration. However, the absence of electronic submission capabilities is a notable practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders.

No e-submission supported
Document URL not explicitly provided (though documents are available)
Data Consistency90/100

The tender exhibits good data consistency with most key fields populated, logical dates, and no reported disputes or suspensions. Minor inconsistencies include missing codes for the procedure type and an empty 'Liable Person' field.

Missing codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'
'Liable Person' field is empty
Sustainability50/100

The tender does not explicitly incorporate any green procurement, social, or innovation criteria. This indicates a missed opportunity to promote broader sustainability objectives within the procurement process.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit social criteria

Strengths

Clear and detailed description of the scope of work
Estimated value, duration, and contract start date are clearly specified
Appropriate CPV code assigned for the nature of the project
Documents are available for review
Good data consistency with no reported disputes

Concerns

Critical absence of specified evaluation criteria
Mandatory exclusion grounds and detailed eligibility requirements are not explicitly defined
Lack of electronic submission capabilities
No explicit integration of sustainability, social, or innovation criteria
Missing reveal date and 'Liable Person' information

Recommendations

1. Immediately publish comprehensive evaluation criteria to ensure transparency and fairness.
2. Clearly define all mandatory exclusion grounds and detailed eligibility requirements.
3. Implement electronic submission capabilities to streamline the bidding process and enhance accessibility.
