Tender Quality Score

This tender provides a clear description of the service and technical requirements, but critically lacks explicit evaluation criteria and electronic submission, impacting transparency and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code clearly, and there are no disputes. However, the absence of explicit evaluation criteria is a significant legal transparency issue, and the missing reveal date is a minor disclosure gap.

Missing explicit evaluation criteria
Missing tender reveal date
Clarity80/100

The description of The Lighthouse service and the scope of the evaluation are very clear. The AI-extracted technical requirements are detailed and understandable. While the absence of evaluation criteria impacts overall process clarity, the provided textual content is well-articulated.

Completeness70/100

Most basic information, including title, reference, organization, deadlines, value, duration, and document availability, is present. However, the critical absence of evaluation criteria, along with missing reveal date, liable person, and procedure codes, significantly reduces the tender's completeness.

Missing explicit evaluation criteria
Missing tender reveal date
Fairness60/100

The tender value is disclosed, and documents are available. While requirements are specialized, they appear justified by the service's nature rather than tailored to a specific company. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria and the lack of electronic submission severely undermine the fairness and equal access of the procurement process.

No explicit evaluation criteria specified
No electronic submission supported
Practicality65/100

The contract start date and duration are clearly specified. However, the lack of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement, hindering efficiency and accessibility for bidders. A direct document URL is not explicitly provided.

No electronic submission supported
No explicit document URL provided
Data Consistency80/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical and consistent. There are no suspensions or disputes. Minor inconsistencies include the empty 'Liable Person' field, missing procedure codes, and the absence of a tender reveal date.

Liable Person field is empty
Procedure type/code is empty
Sustainability50/100

The tender's subject matter, evaluating a child sexual abuse service, inherently addresses significant social aspects, including a requirement to assess Equality, Equity, Diversity and Inclusion. However, the procurement process itself does not explicitly incorporate broader green, social, or innovation criteria for bidders.

No explicit green procurement criteria
No explicit social criteria for bidders

Strengths

Concerns
