Tender Quality Score

This tender for domestic cleaning services exhibits significant deficiencies in completeness, clarity, and fairness due to missing critical information such as evaluation criteria, estimated value, and detailed eligibility requirements, despite clear technical specifications.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance65/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code correctly, and no disputes are reported. However, the absence of a reveal date, undisclosed estimated value, and lack of specific details for mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility, and financial requirements represent significant compliance gaps.

Missing tender reveal date
Estimated value not disclosed
Clarity55/100

The service description and technical capability requirements are clearly articulated. However, the explicit absence of mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, financial requirements, and crucially, evaluation criteria, severely diminishes the overall clarity for potential bidders.

No specific details for mandatory exclusion grounds
No specific details for eligibility requirements
Completeness50/100

While basic information like title, reference, organization, deadlines, and duration are present, critical elements such as the estimated value, detailed mandatory exclusion/eligibility/financial requirements, and evaluation criteria are explicitly missing. The 'Official PDF Version' being marked as 'Required: No' is also a concern for full document completeness.

Estimated value not disclosed
Missing evaluation criteria
Fairness45/100

The lack of disclosed estimated value and, more critically, the absence of specified evaluation criteria significantly undermine the fairness and transparency of the procurement process. While technical requirements appear generic and e-procurement is indicated, these omissions create an uneven playing field.

Estimated value not disclosed
Missing evaluation criteria
Practicality65/100

The tender supports E-Procurement and clearly specifies the contract duration, which are positive for practicality. However, the absence of a direct document URL, unknown contract start date, and undisclosed financing information (value) reduce its overall practicality for bidders.

No document URL provided
Contract start date not known
Data Consistency60/100

The tender shows consistency in dates and absence of disputes. However, several key fields are unpopulated (e.g., Liable Person, various requirements). A notable inconsistency exists between the 'E-Procurement' characteristic and the automated check's 'No e-submission' flag, as well as the 'Required: No' status for the main PDF document.

Contradiction between 'E-Procurement' characteristic and 'No e-submission' flag
Sustainability25/100

No green procurement aspects mentioned
No social aspects mentioned
