Paisley Halloween Festival - Parade & Town Centre Animation

This tender presents significant transparency and completeness issues, particularly regarding the undisclosed value and absence of evaluation criteria, which severely impact fairness and clarity for potential bidders. While basic information is present, critical details for a robust procurement process are missing.

The tender defines an Open procedure and uses an appropriate CPV code. However, the undisclosed estimated value and the complete absence of evaluation criteria are significant legal compliance weaknesses regarding transparency and fair competition. Mandatory exclusion grounds are also not explicitly stated.

The service description and delivery dates are clear. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria is a critical flaw. Requirements like 'highly experienced' and 'established' lack specific definitions, and detailed technical specifications for the parade and animation are not provided.

Basic information, deadlines, and duration are present, and documents are listed. However, the tender is incomplete due to the undisclosed estimated value, missing financial requirements, and critically, the absence of any evaluation criteria.

The undisclosed estimated value and the complete absence of evaluation criteria are major fairness concerns, preventing bidders from making informed decisions and ensuring objective assessment. The 'highly experienced and established' requirement, without clear definition, could limit competition. A contradiction regarding e-submission also raises concerns.

The contract start date and duration are clear. However, the undisclosed value makes it impractical for bidders to formulate realistic financial proposals. The contradiction between 'E-Procurement' characteristic and the 'No e-submission' automated check is a significant practical concern.

Dates are logical and there are no disputes. However, there are significant inconsistencies: 'E-Procurement' characteristic contradicts the 'No e-submission' automated check, and the explicit 'community benefits' requirement contradicts the 'No social criteria' automated check. The 'Liable Person' field is also empty.

The tender explicitly requires addressing 'community benefits,' indicating a positive social aspect. However, it lacks any explicit requirements for green procurement or innovation focus, limiting its overall sustainability profile.
