Tender Quality Score

This Planned Procurement Notice (PPN) effectively informs the market about an upcoming tender for facilities management services, demonstrating good transparency for early engagement, though specific tender details are intentionally absent.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

As a PPN, this notice largely complies with legal requirements for market engagement. The procedure type and CPV codes are clearly defined. While the PPN itself doesn't have a submission deadline for bids, the estimated short period (approx. one month) between the future formal tender publication and its submission deadline could pose a legal compliance risk if not extended.

Estimated short duration for future formal tender submission period (May-June 2026) for a significant contract value.
Clarity80/100

The PPN is clear in its purpose, scope, and estimated timeline. It explicitly states that specific requirements, eligibility, and evaluation criteria will be detailed in the formal Contract Notice, which is appropriate for a planning document.

Completeness70/100

The notice provides essential information such as title, organization, reference, estimated value, duration, and location. However, as a PPN, it intentionally lacks detailed requirements, eligibility criteria, and evaluation criteria, which are fundamental for a full tender.

Absence of specific mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, technical, and financial requirements (as expected for a PPN).
Absence of detailed evaluation criteria (as expected for a PPN).
Fairness85/100

The PPN promotes fairness by inviting early market engagement and disclosing the estimated value and scope. Document access is provided, and requirements are generic, not tailored. However, the estimated short duration for the future formal tender's submission period could potentially limit fair competition.

Estimated short duration for future formal tender submission period could impact fairness for bidders.
Practicality65/100

The notice provides a clear URL to the e-sourcing platform and specifies the contract start date and duration, which is practical for future planning. While electronic submission is not active for the PPN itself, the platform indicates future e-procurement support.

No immediate e-submission functionality for the PPN itself (though expected for the future tender).
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields are generally populated, and dates are logical and consistent, outlining a clear timeline from planning to contract start. Minor omissions include missing codes for procedure type and an empty 'Liable Person' field.

Missing codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure' fields.
Empty 'Liable Person' field.
Sustainability50/100

As a PPN, there is no mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. This is typical for an early notice, but means no points can be awarded for proactive sustainability considerations at this stage.

No explicit mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus.

Strengths

Clear communication of upcoming procurement opportunity and scope.
Early market engagement encouraged through PPN.
Estimated value, duration, and contract start date provided.
Use of e-sourcing platform for transparency and access.
CPV code and location (NUTS) clearly defined.

Concerns

Estimated short duration for the future formal tender's submission period.
Lack of specific requirements and evaluation criteria (inherent to PPN, but a future concern).
Minor data omissions (e.g., missing codes, liable person).

Recommendations

1. Ensure sufficient time (e.g., minimum 30-35 days for open procedures) is allocated for bid preparation in the formal Contract Notice.
2. Provide comprehensive and unambiguous requirements, eligibility, and evaluation criteria in the formal tender documents.
3. Complete all administrative fields, including procedure codes and liable person details, in the formal Contract Notice.
