Tender Quality Score

This tender for cleaning services demonstrates good clarity and practicality with electronic submission, but suffers from significant omissions regarding mandatory exclusion grounds and some data inconsistencies.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance60/100

The tender clearly defines the procedure type and CPV codes, and there are no reported disputes. However, the absence of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds is a significant legal omission that could lead to challenges or non-compliance with procurement regulations.

No explicit mandatory exclusion grounds are detailed in the provided summaries.
Clarity75/100

The tender description is clear, and key requirements are listed, including evaluation criteria (technical quality, social value, pricing). However, the high-level nature of the AI-extracted requirements and the lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds reduce overall clarity for bidders.

AI-extracted requirements are high-level and lack granular detail.
Absence of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds impacts clarity for bidders.
Completeness60/100

Basic information, financial details, timeline, and classification are well-provided. However, the critical omission of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds is a major completeness gap. While evaluation criteria are mentioned, their full detail (e.g., weightings) might be missing.

No explicit mandatory exclusion grounds are detailed.
Missing reveal date (minor).
Fairness80/100

The tender promotes fairness through full document access, disclosed value, and enabled e-procurement. Evaluation criteria are stated as objective (technical quality, social value, pricing). The requirement for bidders to be UK suppliers, while common for local contracts, restricts competition and slightly impacts overall fairness.

Requirement for bidders to be UK suppliers restricts competition.
Practicality85/100

Electronic submission via the Sitemark e-tendering portal is clearly supported, which is a significant practical advantage. Contract start and duration are specified. The main practical limitation is the lack of explicit document URLs and detailed financing information beyond the estimated value.

Explicit document URLs are not provided in the summary.
Financing information is limited to estimated value, lacking further detail.
Data Consistency70/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. However, there are inconsistencies between automated checks and AI-extracted requirements, specifically regarding the inclusion of social criteria and e-submission support. The system flag of 'Missing evaluation criteria' also contradicts the document summary.

Contradictions between automated check results and AI-extracted requirements (e.g., social criteria, e-submission).
System flag 'Missing evaluation criteria' contradicts document summary.
Sustainability50/100

The tender positively includes a requirement for bidders to address social value aspects in their bid. However, it lacks explicit focus on green procurement, innovation, or being EU funded, limiting its overall sustainability ambition.

No explicit focus on green procurement.
No explicit focus on innovation.

Strengths

Clear description and well-defined procedure type.
Electronic submission via a dedicated portal is supported.

Concerns

Recommendations

3. Review the 'UK suppliers only' restriction to ensure it is proportionate and legally justified for an open competition.
