Carriageway Resurfacing and Footway Works 2026/27 - Bulk Tender 1

This tender demonstrates good clarity and data consistency for basic information but has notable deficiencies in electronic submission capabilities, detailed legal requirements, and sustainability integration. While the core procurement process appears sound, several areas require improvement for modern best practices.

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes correctly, and there are no reported disputes. However, the AI-extracted requirements indicate a lack of detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, which is a significant legal compliance concern that could impact the fairness and legality of the selection process.

The tender description is clear, and the evaluation criteria (60% price, 40% quality) are specified in the document summaries, resolving the 'missing evaluation criteria' flag. AI-extracted requirements are understandable but generic, and performance conditions could be more detailed.

Most essential information, including title, reference, organization, value, duration, and location, is provided. Documents are available. However, the 'Missing reveal date' and the absence of specific mandatory exclusion grounds in the extracted requirements are notable gaps.

Full document access, disclosed value, and objective evaluation criteria (60% price, 40% quality) contribute positively to fairness. Requirements are generic and not tailored. However, the absence of electronic submission significantly hinders equal access and transparency for potential bidders.

The lack of electronic submission is a major practical drawback, increasing administrative burden for bidders. While contract start and duration are clear, an explicit document URL is not provided, which could slightly impede ease of access.

Dates are logical and consistent, and there are no reported disputes or suspensions. Most key fields are populated, though the 'Liable Person' field is empty and the reveal date is missing. The contradiction regarding evaluation criteria was resolved by prioritizing document summaries.

The tender shows significant deficiencies in sustainability integration, with no mention of green procurement, social criteria, or innovation focus. This indicates a missed opportunity to leverage public procurement for broader societal and environmental benefits.
