IWM/2526/Dux/3492: Specialist Logistics for Large Museum Assets at IWM Duxford - AMENDED NOTICE

This tender for specialist logistics services provides a clear project description but is significantly hampered by critical issues regarding document accessibility, missing evaluation criteria, and data inconsistencies, severely impacting its completeness and fairness.

The tender defines the procedure type and has a reasonable submission period. However, the CPV code could be more precise for specialist logistics, and the AI summary lacks explicit mandatory exclusion grounds, which are standard legal requirements. The 'AMENDED NOTICE' suggests prior publication, but a 'missing reveal date' is flagged.

The project description and technical requirements are clear and unambiguous, detailing the scope of work and types of assets. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces overall clarity for potential bidders.

While basic information, deadlines, and value are provided, the tender is critically incomplete due to the failure to download the primary 'Tender Notice' document. Furthermore, explicit evaluation criteria and detailed financial requirements are missing from the provided information.

The tender's fairness is severely compromised by the inability to access the main tender document and the complete absence of evaluation criteria, which prevents objective assessment and transparent competition. While e-procurement is enabled, these fundamental flaws undermine equal opportunity.

Electronic submission via Delta e-sourcing is supported, and key dates like contract start and duration are clearly specified. The provision of a direct URL and access code enhances practical access. However, the failed download of the main tender document presents a significant practical hurdle for bidders.

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. However, there is a significant inconsistency in the estimated value, stated as 132,000.00 EUR in basic info and £110,000 in a document summary, which are not equivalent. A minor contradiction exists regarding e-submission between automated checks and AI-extracted requirements.

The tender does not include any explicit requirements or considerations related to green procurement, social aspects, or innovation. It is also noted as not being EU funded, which often correlates with higher sustainability standards.
