General agreement for surface treatment on national road objects for a 3-year period

This tender for road surface treatment, valued at €50 million, suffers from critical transparency and completeness issues due to restricted document access and the absence of detailed requirements and evaluation criteria, severely hindering fair competition.

The tender appears to be legally non-compliant due to the absence of specified mandatory exclusion grounds and the lack of publicly accessible tender documents, which are fundamental for transparent public procurement processes.

The clarity of the tender is severely compromised by the complete absence of tender documents. While some high-level requirements are listed, their specific criteria and definitions are missing, making it impossible for potential bidders to understand the exact expectations.

The tender is highly incomplete. Crucial elements such as the full tender documentation, detailed evaluation criteria, specific mandatory exclusion grounds, and location information (NUTS code) are entirely absent. This makes it impossible for bidders to prepare a comprehensive and compliant offer.

The fairness of the procurement process is severely undermined by the restricted document access and the absence of detailed, publicly available evaluation criteria. This lack of transparency creates a significant risk of unequal treatment among potential bidders and could potentially allow for requirements to be tailored or interpreted in a way that favors specific companies.

From a practical standpoint, the tender is unworkable for potential bidders without access to the full tender documents. It is impossible to prepare a compliant technical or financial proposal without understanding the detailed scope, specifications, and terms. The lack of e-submission also indicates an outdated process.

There is a significant inconsistency with the CPV code, which is listed as '7'. This is an overly broad and incorrect classification for 'works' related to road surface treatment, hindering proper categorization and searchability. The description also merely repeats the title.

The provided information indicates a complete absence of green procurement or social criteria. This represents a missed opportunity for the contracting authority to promote environmental sustainability and social responsibility through its procurement activities.
