Tender Quality Score

This tender for targeted information and guidance services for the Jewish community is clear in its objectives and requirements but suffers from significant transparency and accessibility issues, primarily due to the absence of evaluation criteria and lack of e-submission.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance65/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code clearly. However, the missing reveal date, the lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds in the AI summary, and critically, the absence of specified evaluation criteria, represent significant compliance gaps regarding transparency and legal certainty.

Missing reveal date
No explicit mandatory exclusion grounds mentioned in AI summary
Clarity70/100

The service description, target group, and AI-extracted eligibility and technical requirements are clear and unambiguous. However, the critical absence of evaluation criteria significantly diminishes the overall clarity for potential bidders on how their proposals will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness60/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, duration, and location are provided. Requirements are defined. However, the tender is incomplete due to the critical absence of evaluation criteria and the ambiguity surrounding the 'Required: No' status for all listed tender documents, which may indicate a lack of comprehensive bidding instructions.

No evaluation criteria specified
Ambiguity of 'Required: No' status for tender documents
Fairness60/100

The estimated value is disclosed, and the requirements, while specific to a community, do not appear tailored to a single company. However, the absence of evaluation criteria is a major fairness concern, as it prevents objective and transparent assessment. The lack of e-submission also limits equal access and convenience for bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
No electronic submission (e-submission)
Practicality65/100

The contract start date, duration, and financing information are clearly specified. However, the absence of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback, increasing administrative burden for bidders. The lack of an explicit document URL, despite documents being listed, also slightly impacts practicality.

No electronic submission (e-submission)
Data Consistency90/100

The tender exhibits good data consistency, with key fields generally populated, logical dates, and consistent financial values (EUR/GBP conversion). Minor gaps include an empty 'Liable Person' field and missing 'Code' for Type/Procedure, as well as the missing reveal date.

Liable Person field is empty
Missing 'Code' for Type/Procedure
Sustainability50/100

The tender has a strong inherent social aspect, as it targets vulnerable residents within a specific community facing hardship. However, it explicitly lacks any focus on green procurement or innovation, and is not EU funded, which typically correlates with higher sustainability standards.

Not green procurement
No innovation focus
