Upphandlingskvalitetspoäng

This is a clear and transparent market testing notice, providing a good overview of a future procurement, but it lacks e-submission capabilities and detailed sustainability criteria.

Poängfördelning

Regelefterlevnad75/100

The notice is legally compliant for market testing purposes, referencing the UK Procurement Act 2023. The long market testing period is reasonable. Minor issues include missing procedure codes for the 'Type' and 'Procedure' fields.

Missing procedure codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'
Tydlighet80/100

The tender is exceptionally clear about its purpose as a market testing notice and explicitly states why formal requirements (exclusion, eligibility, technical, financial, submission, evaluation criteria) are not yet specified. Strategic objectives are well-articulated.

Fullständighet70/100

All basic information required for a market testing notice (title, reference, organization, value, duration, location) is present. However, as a 'tender' document, it lacks detailed requirements and evaluation criteria, which is appropriate for this preliminary stage but impacts overall completeness.

Absence of detailed eligibility, technical, financial, and submission requirements (appropriate for market testing, but noted for completeness)
Missing evaluation criteria (appropriate for market testing, but noted for completeness)
Rättvisa85/100

Fairness is high due to the transparency of the estimated value, the explicit statement that requirements are not tailored (as none are specified), and the very long market testing period allowing ample time for engagement. The lack of e-submission is a drawback for equal access.

No e-submission support for market engagement
Praktisk genomförbarhet65/100

Key dates (contract start, duration) are clearly specified. However, the absence of electronic submission support is a significant practical limitation for market participants. A direct document URL is not explicitly provided.

No electronic submission supported
No direct document URL provided
Datakonsistens90/100

The data is largely consistent and logical, with no reported disputes or suspensions. Dates are coherent. Minor inconsistencies include the empty 'Liable Person' field and missing codes for procedure types.

Empty 'Liable Person' field
Missing codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'
Hållbarhet50/100

The strategic objectives mention 'NHS food safety, nutrition, and sustainability requirements,' indicating an intent towards sustainability. However, specific, detailed green procurement, social, or innovation criteria are not yet defined beyond this general objective.

Lack of explicit, detailed green procurement criteria
Lack of explicit social criteria

Styrkor

Clear identification as a market testing notice
Transparency regarding estimated contract value
Well-defined strategic objectives for future service
Long market testing period for market engagement
Reference to compliance with Procurement Act 2023

Potentiella problem

Absence of e-submission capabilities for market engagement
Missing procedure codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure'
Lack of explicit, detailed sustainability/social/innovation criteria
Empty 'Liable Person' field
No direct URL for tender documents provided

Rekommendationer

1. Implement e-submission capabilities for future market engagement and formal tenders to enhance accessibility and fairness.
2. Ensure all procedural codes and responsible personnel details are fully populated in subsequent notices.
3. Develop and clearly articulate specific sustainability, social, and innovation criteria for the future procurement.
