Tender Quality Score

This tender notice provides a clear description of the required employee benefits and services but is critically incomplete due to the absence of essential tender documents, evaluation criteria, and fundamental eligibility/exclusion grounds. The incorrect CPV code also represents a significant classification error.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance100/100

The tender notice, in its current form, raises significant legal compliance concerns. The absence of mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, and evaluation criteria directly undermines principles of transparency, equal treatment, and proportionality, making it impossible for bidders to understand the full legal framework of the procurement.

Absence of mandatory exclusion grounds.
Absence of eligibility requirements.
Clarity40/100

The description of the required employee benefits and the technical service requirements are generally clear and well-articulated. However, the overall clarity of the procurement process is severely compromised by the lack of any attached tender documents, leaving bidders without crucial information on how to prepare and submit a compliant bid.

Overall procurement process is unclear due to missing tender documents.
Completeness83/100

The tender is critically incomplete. Key components such as full tender documents (Instructions to Bidders, Scope of Work, Terms and Conditions, Draft Contract), detailed evaluation criteria, and explicit financial requirements are entirely missing. This renders the notice insufficient for potential bidders to formulate a proper response.

No tender documents attached.
Missing evaluation criteria.
Fairness60/100

The fairness of the tender is severely compromised. Without evaluation criteria, bidders cannot understand how their proposals will be assessed, leading to a lack of transparency and potential for arbitrary decisions. The requirement for bidders to provide 'all services listed' might also unduly restrict competition to larger, multi-service providers or consortia, potentially limiting participation from specialized firms.

Absence of evaluation criteria undermines transparency and equal treatment.
Requirement to provide 'all services listed' could be restrictive, potentially limiting competition.
Practicality40/100

From a practical standpoint, it is impossible for potential bidders to prepare and submit a compliant and competitive bid based solely on the provided notice. The absence of any tender documents means bidders lack essential information regarding the scope, terms, conditions, and submission process, making a practical response unfeasible.

Bidders cannot practically respond without full tender documents.
Data Consistency100/100

There is a significant inconsistency between the tender's title and description ('Employee Benefits and Services') and its assigned CPV code ('Parcel transport services'). This fundamental error could lead to the tender being overlooked by relevant suppliers and seen by irrelevant ones.

Major inconsistency between tender description and CPV code.
Sustainability25/100

While the tender mentions an 'Innovation Focus,' there are no explicit requirements or criteria related to environmental sustainability (green procurement) or social aspects (e.g., fair labor practices, local community benefits) detailed in the provided text. This represents a missed opportunity to integrate broader sustainability goals.

Lack of explicit green procurement criteria.
Lack of explicit social criteria.

Strengths

Clear and detailed description of the required employee benefits and services.
Utilizes an open procedure, promoting competition.
Explicitly states an 'Innovation Focus' (though not elaborated with criteria).
Framework agreement structure allows for flexibility and long-term engagement.

Concerns

Critical absence of all tender documents.
Incorrect CPV code ('Parcel transport services' for 'Employee Benefits').
Missing mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, and financial requirements.
Absence of any evaluation criteria.
Requirement to provide 'all services listed' may unduly restrict competition.

Recommendations

1. Immediately publish all comprehensive tender documents, including instructions to bidders, full scope of work, terms and conditions, and draft contract.
2. Correct the CPV code to accurately reflect 'Employee Benefits and Services' (e.g., 79630000-8 Human resources services, 85312300-2 Welfare services, 85312100-0 Industrial health services).
3. Clearly define and publish all mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility criteria, financial requirements, and detailed evaluation criteria to ensure transparency and fairness.
