Invitation to tender for the provision of S4C Internal Audit Services

This tender notice is critically incomplete due to the absence of the main Invitation to Tender document, rendering it practically impossible for bidders to understand the full scope, requirements, and evaluation criteria. Key legal and practical elements, such as mandatory exclusion grounds and detailed technical/financial requirements, are also missing.

The tender notice is severely lacking in legal compliance, primarily due to the absence of mandatory exclusion grounds, which are fundamental for public procurement. The lack of evaluation criteria also raises significant legal concerns regarding transparency and equal treatment.

Clarity is extremely poor. The notice repeatedly refers to an 'attached Invitation to Tender document' which is not present, making all detailed requirements and the scope of services unclear.

The tender is critically incomplete. The core 'Invitation to Tender document' is missing, along with essential details such as specific service descriptions, evaluation criteria, and full submission instructions.

Fairness is severely compromised. Without evaluation criteria, detailed requirements, or even the full tender document, bidders cannot understand how their proposals will be assessed, leading to an opaque and potentially unfair process.

The tender is impractical for bidders. It is impossible to prepare a compliant and competitive bid without the referenced main tender document and detailed requirements.

There is a critical inconsistency between the description stating a document is 'attached' and the 'DOCUMENTS (0 total)' section.

No sustainability (green, social, innovation) criteria are mentioned. While not always mandatory for below-threshold, their absence represents a missed opportunity for value-added procurement.
