WCC - Dynamic Purchasing System for Bus Transport Services

This tender establishes a Dynamic Purchasing System for bus transport services, demonstrating good clarity on the service scope and a long submission window. However, it suffers from significant completeness and fairness issues due to the absence of explicit financial requirements, mandatory exclusion grounds, and crucial evaluation criteria.

The tender defines the procedure as a Dynamic Purchasing System and assigns an appropriate CPV code. However, the absence of explicitly stated mandatory exclusion grounds and specific financial requirements in the summary raises concerns regarding full compliance with procurement regulations. The 'Restricted procedure' type for a DPS is somewhat unusual, though the description clarifies it's a DPS.

The description of the bus transport services, vehicle size, and DPS duration is clear and unambiguous. However, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly impacts the overall clarity for potential bidders, making it difficult to understand the selection process.

Basic information such as title, reference, organization, value, and duration are provided. However, the tender is incomplete due to the explicit absence of mandatory exclusion grounds, specific financial requirements, and, most critically, evaluation criteria, which are fundamental components of a comprehensive tender.

While the estimated value is disclosed and requirements appear generic, the complete absence of evaluation criteria is a critical flaw that severely undermines fairness and transparency for all applicants. The contradiction regarding e-submission capabilities also raises concerns about equal access.

The tender lacks a direct URL for accessing documents, which is a practical hurdle. Furthermore, the contradiction between 'E-Procurement' being a characteristic and 'No e-submission' being flagged as an issue creates uncertainty regarding the practical submission process.

Most key fields are populated, and dates (submission deadline, contract duration) are logical and consistent with the DPS validity. However, the 'Liable Person' field is empty, the reveal date is missing, and there is a direct contradiction regarding e-submission capabilities, indicating some data inconsistencies.

The tender does not explicitly include any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. This represents a missed opportunity to integrate broader sustainability objectives into the procurement process.
