Tender Quality Score

This tender for an Investment Management Solution provides a clear description of technical requirements but is significantly hampered by the absence of specified evaluation criteria and lack of electronic submission, impacting overall transparency and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The procedure type and CPV codes are appropriate, and deadlines are reasonable. However, the absence of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds and full evaluation criteria in the provided summary is a notable legal compliance gap, assuming these are not fully detailed in the complete procurement documents.

Missing mandatory exclusion grounds in the provided summary
No evaluation criteria specified in the provided summary
Clarity70/100

The description of the required investment management solution, its functionalities, and supported product sets is very clear and detailed. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria significantly reduces the clarity for potential bidders regarding how their proposals will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness65/100

Basic information, value, duration, and detailed technical requirements are provided. However, critical procedural elements such as comprehensive eligibility criteria, mandatory exclusion grounds, and evaluation criteria are missing from the provided information. A minor inconsistency exists regarding 'Divided into Parts' versus 'single contracting entity'.

Missing comprehensive eligibility criteria in the provided summary
Missing mandatory exclusion grounds in the provided summary
Fairness60/100

The lack of specified evaluation criteria and the absence of electronic submission are significant concerns for fairness, as they hinder transparency and equal access for all potential bidders. The technical requirements appear robust and not overtly tailored.

No evaluation criteria specified
No electronic submission (e-submission)
Practicality60/100

The absence of electronic submission is a major practical drawback in modern procurement, potentially increasing administrative burden for bidders. Other practical details like contract start date and duration are clearly specified.

No electronic submission (e-submission)
Data Consistency85/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. There are no reported disputes or suspensions. A minor inconsistency exists between the 'Characteristics: Divided into Parts' and the statement 'NWF is seeking to appoint one contracting entity'.

Minor inconsistency: 'Divided into Parts' vs. 'single contracting entity'
Missing 'Liable Person' field
