Tender Quality Score

This tender for a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for grounds maintenance services presents a mixed quality, with good basic information and e-procurement, but significant deficiencies in clarity, completeness, and fairness due to missing evaluation criteria and inconsistent data.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code, and no disputes are noted. However, the absence of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds, missing procedure codes, and a missing reveal date are notable compliance gaps, though typical for a DPS framework.

No explicit mandatory exclusion grounds stated
Missing procedure type codes
Clarity60/100

While the overall purpose of the DPS is clear, the AI-extracted requirements are generic and lack detail. Critically, the tender explicitly states that no evaluation criteria are specified, which severely impacts clarity for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified
AI-extracted requirements are generic and lack detail
Completeness65/100

Basic information like title, reference, organization, value, and duration are present. However, the tender is incomplete due to the absence of evaluation criteria, explicit mandatory exclusion grounds, and the failure to download one of the listed documents. The inconsistent contract start date also points to data quality issues.

No evaluation criteria specified
No explicit mandatory exclusion grounds stated
Fairness55/100

The tender discloses the estimated value and supports e-procurement, which are positive for fairness. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly undermines transparency and objectivity, making it difficult for bidders to prepare competitive proposals.

No evaluation criteria specified
Practicality60/100

Electronic submission via the Due North portal is supported, which is practical. However, the highly inconsistent contract start date (2019-12-02 vs. 2026-01-30 today's date and 2029-02-23 submission deadline) creates significant practical confusion regarding the tender's actual timeline and operational status.

Inconsistent contract start date
No direct document URL provided in basic information
Data Consistency40/100

The most significant issue is the highly illogical and inconsistent contract start date (2019-12-02) compared to the current date (2026-01-30) and the submission deadline (2029-02-23). Minor inconsistencies include missing codes for procedure type and an empty 'Liable Person' field.

Inconsistent contract start date (2019-12-02 is in the past)
Missing procedure type codes
Sustainability20/100

The tender lacks any explicit mention or requirements related to green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus, indicating a significant gap in modern sustainability considerations.

No green procurement criteria
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear overall description of the DPS purpose
High estimated value disclosed
E-Procurement enabled via a specific portal
Tender is divided into parts, potentially encouraging broader participation
Long submission window, typical for a DPS

Concerns

Absence of explicit evaluation criteria
Inconsistent contract start date (2019-12-02)
Lack of detailed requirements beyond generic statements
No explicit mandatory exclusion grounds stated
No integration of sustainability (green, social, innovation) criteria

Recommendations

1. Publish comprehensive and objective evaluation criteria to ensure transparency and fairness for all bidders.
2. Clarify and correct the contract start date to ensure data consistency and provide a clear understanding of the DPS's operational timeline.
3. Integrate sustainability criteria (environmental, social, and innovation) into the DPS framework to align with modern procurement best practices.
