Tender Quality Score

This tender is clear and well-structured regarding its objectives and technical requirements, but it has significant gaps in evaluation criteria and explicit legal requirements within the provided summary.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

While the basic structure appears compliant, the absence of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds and eligibility requirements in the provided summary is a notable gap, even if they exist in the full documents.

Mandatory exclusion grounds not explicitly stated in provided documents.
Eligibility requirements not explicitly stated in provided documents.
Clarity65/100

The project description and technical requirements are very clear and unambiguous. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly reduces the overall clarity for potential bidders.

No evaluation criteria specified.
Completeness60/100

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, deadlines, and duration are present. However, the lack of explicit mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, and evaluation criteria makes the tender incomplete from a bidder's perspective based on the provided content.

Missing evaluation criteria.
Mandatory exclusion grounds and eligibility requirements not explicitly defined in the provided content.
Fairness55/100

The absence of specified evaluation criteria is a major fairness concern, as it hinders transparency and equal opportunity for bidders to understand how their proposals will be judged. Other aspects like value disclosure and e-procurement are positive.

No evaluation criteria specified, impacting transparency and objectivity.
Practicality85/100

Electronic submission is clearly supported with provided links, the contract start date and duration are known, and financing information (estimated value) is available, making the process practical for bidders.

Data Consistency90/100

All key fields are populated, there are no disputes, and dates are logical and consistent. The minor currency difference between EUR and GBP for the estimated value is an approximate conversion and does not indicate inconsistency.

Sustainability50/100

While there are no explicit green procurement or social criteria, the project's core objective of improving air quality inherently contributes to environmental sustainability. The focus on 'best approaches' also implies an innovation drive.

No explicit green procurement criteria.
No explicit social criteria.

Strengths

Clear project description and objectives.
Specific and relevant technical capability requirements.
Electronic submission supported with clear links.
Value, duration, and contract start date are specified.
CPV code is appropriate.

Concerns

Absence of explicit evaluation criteria.
