Tender Quality Score

This tender for stray dog services demonstrates good basic structure and electronic accessibility, but is significantly hampered by the absence of explicit evaluation criteria and detailed financial requirements, impacting clarity and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The procedure type and CPV codes are clearly defined, and there are no reported disputes. However, the absence of a tender reveal date and the lack of explicitly detailed mandatory exclusion grounds in the summaries are minor compliance concerns.

Missing tender reveal date
No specific mandatory exclusion grounds explicitly detailed in summaries
Clarity55/100

The description of services and technical requirements are clear and unambiguous. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces the clarity for potential bidders on how their proposals will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria specified
No specific financial requirements explicitly detailed in summaries
Completeness60/100

Basic information, deadlines, value, duration, and location are all provided, and documents are available. Nevertheless, the tender is incomplete due to the critical omission of evaluation criteria, detailed financial requirements, and the tender reveal date.

Missing evaluation criteria
No specific financial requirements explicitly detailed in summaries
Fairness65/100

Document access, value disclosure, and e-procurement support contribute positively to fairness. Requirements are generic and SMEs are encouraged. However, the lack of specified evaluation criteria is a major flaw that undermines the objectivity and transparency of the selection process.

No evaluation criteria specified
Practicality85/100

The tender supports electronic submission, provides a document URL, and clearly specifies the contract start date and duration, making it highly practical for bidders. The estimated value is also provided.

Data Consistency90/100

Data consistency is high, with no reported suspensions or disputes, and logical dates. The 'Liable Person' field is empty, and 'Value Classified: Yes' alongside a disclosed value is a minor inconsistency, but these do not significantly impact overall data integrity.

Liable Person field is empty
Sustainability30/100

The tender does not explicitly incorporate any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus, indicating a missed opportunity to align with modern sustainability standards in public procurement.

Not green procurement
No social criteria

Strengths

Electronic submission via a dedicated portal is supported.
All basic information, including estimated value, contract duration, and start date, is provided.

Concerns

Lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds and detailed financial requirements in the provided summaries.
Missing tender reveal date, which affects transparency of the overall timeline.
No integration of green, social, or innovation sustainability aspects.
"Liable Person" field is empty.

Recommendations
