BAS Helicopter Charter

This tender for helicopter charter services presents a clear objective and detailed technical requirements, but is significantly hampered by the absence of specified evaluation criteria and lack of e-submission, impacting fairness and transparency.

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV code correctly. However, the absence of a clear reveal date, detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, and critically, the lack of specified evaluation criteria represent notable compliance gaps regarding transparency and disclosure requirements.

The tender's description and AI-extracted eligibility and technical requirements are clear and specific to the complex nature of the service. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria significantly diminishes the overall clarity for potential bidders regarding how their proposals will be assessed.

While core information like title, reference, value, and duration are present, the tender lacks a specified liable person, detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, and crucially, evaluation criteria. The discrepancy in estimated value between the main data and the PDF summary, along with ambiguity regarding full document access, further indicates completeness issues.

The tender's fairness is severely compromised by the complete absence of evaluation criteria, which prevents bidders from understanding the basis of award. The lack of e-submission creates an unnecessary barrier to equal access, and the specific technical requirements, while likely legitimate for the specialized service, could limit the pool of eligible bidders.

The tender specifies key dates like contract start and duration, which is practical. However, the absence of electronic submission capabilities and a direct document URL significantly reduces the practicality and efficiency for bidders to participate and access information.

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. However, the missing liable person and, more significantly, the discrepancy between the estimated value (420,000 EUR) and the value stated in the PDF summary (£350,000) represent notable data inconsistencies.

The tender explicitly includes an "Innovation Focus," which is a positive aspect for sustainability. However, it lacks specific green procurement criteria or detailed social aspects beyond a general encouragement for SME/VCSE participation, limiting its overall sustainability profile.
