Social Return on Investment and Impact Evaluation Framework for Digital Inclusion - Cambridgeshire and Peterborough

This tender documentation is clear and comprehensive in its content, but its quality is significantly reduced by the absence of evaluation criteria and the lack of e-submission capability.

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code appropriately, and there are no disputes. However, the absence of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds and missing procedure codes are minor compliance gaps. The missing reveal date prevents a full assessment of publication period compliance.

The description of the required services is clear, detailed, and unambiguous. The AI-extracted requirements are also well-defined. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces clarity for potential bidders regarding how their proposals will be assessed.

Most essential information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and location is provided, and documents are available. However, the tender is incomplete due to the critical omission of evaluation criteria and minor missing details like procedure codes and the liable person.

The tender provides full document access and discloses the estimated value. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria is a major fairness concern, as it compromises transparency and objectivity in the selection process. The lack of electronic submission also limits equal access for all potential bidders.

Key practical information like contract start date, duration, and financing is available. However, the absence of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders.

The tender exhibits good data consistency with logical dates, no reported disputes, and most key fields populated. Minor inconsistencies include empty fields for the liable person and procedure codes.

While the subject matter of the tender (digital inclusion) is inherently social, the tender documentation does not explicitly incorporate green procurement criteria or an innovation focus for the supplier's approach. It is also not EU funded.
