Tender Quality Score

This tender presents a clear project description and supports electronic submission, but it significantly lacks crucial evaluation criteria and detailed bidder requirements, impacting transparency and fairness.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code correctly. However, the absence of a reveal date and the lack of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, and financial requirements in the summary represent notable gaps in full legal disclosure and transparency.

Missing reveal date
Lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds in summary
Clarity65/100

The project description and technical requirements are clear. Nevertheless, the complete absence of evaluation criteria and the lack of explicit mandatory exclusion, eligibility, and financial requirements in the provided summary significantly reduce the overall clarity for potential bidders.

Missing evaluation criteria
Lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds in summary
Completeness60/100

Basic information such as title, organization, value, deadlines, and location is provided. However, critical elements like comprehensive evaluation criteria, detailed mandatory exclusion/eligibility/financial requirements, and full tender specifications (beyond administrative documents) are not summarized, making the tender incomplete.

Missing evaluation criteria
Lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds in summary
Fairness55/100

The estimated value is disclosed, and e-procurement is supported. However, the absence of evaluation criteria is a severe fairness concern. The missing reveal date and the lack of explicit eligibility/financial requirements also detract from transparency and equal access for all potential bidders.

Practicality85/100

The tender scores well on practicality, with clear support for electronic submission via a specified platform, a provided document URL, a known contract start date, and a clearly defined duration.

Data Consistency80/100

The data is largely consistent and logical, with dates aligning correctly. Minor inconsistencies include empty codes for 'Type' and 'Procedure', and a slight currency variation in the estimated value (£1.5M vs 1.8M EUR).
