Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The procedure type and CPV code are clearly defined, and there are no reported disputes or suspensions. The submission period of 29 days is reasonable. However, the provided summary lacks explicit detail on mandatory exclusion, eligibility, and financial grounds, and the reveal date is missing, which are minor compliance gaps in the summary information.

Fairness55/100

The estimated value is disclosed, and documents are accessible, promoting transparency. The technical requirements appear generic and not tailored to a specific company.

The lack of e-submission also limits equal access and convenience.
