Tender Quality Score

This is a clearly defined market engagement event notice, providing a good overview of a future service, but it presents some metadata gaps and lacks e-submission for the event.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance70/100

While this is a market engagement notice and not a formal tender, the 'Type: None' and 'Procedure: None' fields represent metadata gaps. However, the notice is clear about its purpose and complies with basic notification requirements for such an event.

•Type and Procedure fields are marked as 'None'
Clarity90/100

The purpose of the notice is exceptionally clear, repeatedly stating it is a market engagement event. The aims and objectives of the future service are well-articulated, and the AI-extracted requirements correctly identify that formal tender requirements are not applicable at this stage.

Completeness80/100

All basic information for a market engagement notice is present, including the estimated value and duration of the future contract. The 'Type' and 'Procedure' metadata fields are unpopulated, which is a minor completeness gap.

•Type and Procedure fields are marked as 'None'
Fairness85/100

The market engagement event itself promotes fairness by seeking broad input from potential providers. The eligibility requirements are generic and not tailored. The lack of e-submission is a minor practical barrier but does not indicate fundamental unfairness in the process.

•No e-submission for the market engagement event
Practicality60/100

The absence of e-submission for the market engagement event is a practical limitation. The notice does not explicitly provide direct URLs for documents or specific details on how to register or participate in the event, which could hinder ease of access.

•No e-submission for the market engagement event
•No direct URL for documents provided in the text
Data Consistency85/100

The data is largely consistent, with dates and financial information being logical. The primary inconsistency lies in the unpopulated 'Type' and 'Procedure' fields, which are formal data elements.

•Type and Procedure fields are marked as 'None'
Sustainability75/100

While the procurement process itself does not explicitly highlight green procurement or innovation, the description of the Dementia Support Service strongly emphasizes social aspects such as reducing health inequalities, promoting independence, and embedding lived experience, which are key elements of social sustainability.

•No explicit green procurement focus
•No explicit innovation focus in the procurement process
