Tender Quality Score

This tender for Walpole Bay Beach Facilities is generally well-structured, with clear basic information and a disclosed estimated value. However, critical details regarding evaluation criteria and the full content of tender documents are missing from the initial notice, impacting completeness and clarity.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender appears to comply with basic legal requirements, including a clear CPV code and a stated procedure. Deadlines are provided, though the submission deadline's adequacy for a project of this scope and complexity is not fully assessable without further context. No disputes are reported. The mention of a prior planned procurement notice suggests adherence to procedural steps.

Clarity80/100

The description of the project is clear, outlining the scope of works and the intended purpose of the new facilities. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria within the notice itself, with a reference to 'Invitation to Tender documents', reduces overall clarity for initial assessment. The AI-extracted requirements also largely defer to 'Tender Documents'.

Missing evaluation criteria in the notice
Completeness70/100

Most basic information is present, including title, reference, organization, estimated value, and contract duration/start date. However, the lack of accessible content for the tender documents (stated as 'Documents with content/summaries: 0') is a significant gap. While URLs are provided to download them, the inability to preview their content directly from the notice hinders completeness.

No content/summary for tender documents
Fairness85/100

The tender is open competition, and the estimated value is disclosed, which promotes fairness. The use of an e-procurement portal (Delta eSourcing) is positive. The criteria and methodology are stated to be in the ITT documents, which is standard, but the absence of any summary of these criteria in the notice could be a minor concern for initial bidder assessment.

Practicality65/100

The tender utilizes an e-submission portal, which is practical. A contract start date and duration are specified. However, the lack of explicit financing information within the notice is a minor drawback. The primary practicality issue stems from the need to download all documents to understand the full scope and requirements.

No explicit financing information in notice
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, reference, organization, value, and dates are populated logically. The contract start date (2026-06-15) is after the submission deadline (2026-04-16), which is consistent. No suspension or disputes are indicated.

Sustainability50/100

The tender notice does not explicitly mention any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not indicated as EU funded. This suggests a lack of emphasis on sustainability criteria within the publicly available notice.

No mention of green procurement
No mention of social aspects

Strengths
