Legal Compliance100/100
The tender is an 'open competition' below threshold, which generally implies adherence to basic procurement principles. However, the absence of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, and critically, evaluation criteria, raises significant legal compliance concerns regarding transparency and fairness.
•Absence of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds in the provided information.
•Absence of explicitly stated eligibility requirements in the provided information.
Clarity40/100
The project description is clear, providing specific definitions for 'capacity' and 'capability' within the context of the labour survey. Technical requirements are also clearly articulated. However, the overall clarity for bidders is severely hampered by the complete lack of attached tender documents.
•Overall clarity for bidders is compromised due to the complete absence of tender documents (e.g., detailed scope, terms and conditions, submission forms).
Completeness83/100
This tender is critically incomplete. The explicit statement 'DOCUMENTS (0 total)' and 'No document content available' means that essential tender documentation, including detailed instructions, terms, conditions, and evaluation criteria, is entirely missing from the provided information. This makes a comprehensive bid submission impossible.
•Complete absence of tender documents, making the tender package critically incomplete.
•Missing evaluation criteria, which are essential for bidders to understand how their proposals will be assessed.
Fairness60/100
While the technical requirements appear reasonable and not overtly tailored, the complete absence of evaluation criteria is a major fairness concern. Bidders cannot understand how their proposals will be judged, leading to potential for subjective assessment and an uneven playing field. The lack of full documentation also hinders fair competition.
•Absence of evaluation criteria, which is critical for ensuring a fair and transparent bidding process.
•Lack of full tender documents creates an information asymmetry, potentially disadvantaging bidders.
Practicality40/100
The contract duration of 10 months and the budget of £100,000 (approx. €120,000) seem practical for a specialized labour survey. The use of an eSourcing portal (Jaggaer) is a standard and practical submission method. However, the lack of full documents could hide practical challenges for bidders.
•Potential for practical difficulties for bidders due to the absence of detailed instructions and forms in the missing tender documents.
Data Consistency100/100
The estimated value in EUR and the proposed budget in GBP are consistent, considering typical exchange rates. The contract duration aligns with the delivery requirement. No inconsistencies were detected in the provided data.
Sustainability25/100
The tender explicitly promotes methodological sustainability by requiring a methodology that ensures value to future research. This is a positive aspect. However, the automated checks indicate a lack of broader environmental ('Not green procurement') and social criteria, which are increasingly important for comprehensive sustainable procurement.
•Lacks broader environmental (green procurement) and social sustainability criteria for the procurement process and supplier selection.
