Tender Quality Score

This tender for community services transport is generally well-structured with key information provided, but suffers from a critical lack of specified evaluation criteria and some data inconsistencies.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender defines the procedure type and CPV codes appropriately, and there are no disputes. However, the absence of a reveal date and, more critically, the lack of specified evaluation criteria are significant compliance gaps regarding transparency and fair competition.

Missing reveal date
No evaluation criteria specified
Clarity80/100

The description is clear, and AI-extracted requirements are categorized well. However, the critical absence of evaluation criteria makes it unclear how bids will be assessed, and specific details for requirements (e.g., community benefits, financial capacity) are not fully elaborated.

No evaluation criteria specified
Lack of specific detail for some requirements
Completeness70/100

Basic information, financial details, timeline, and documents are present. However, the tender is incomplete due to the missing evaluation criteria and the lack of detailed performance conditions, which are crucial for bidders.

Missing evaluation criteria
Lack of detailed performance conditions
Fairness85/100

The estimated value is disclosed, requirements appear generic, and e-procurement is indicated. However, the absence of evaluation criteria significantly impacts fairness, as bidders cannot objectively prepare or understand the basis of award. Full document access is implied but not directly provided.

No evaluation criteria specified
Practicality65/100

Electronic submission is listed as a characteristic, but an automated check flags 'No e-submission', creating a practical ambiguity. A direct document URL is not provided, and the contract start date is missing, reducing overall practicality for potential bidders.

Contradiction regarding e-submission support
No direct document URL provided
Data Consistency75/100

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. However, the 'Liable Person' field is empty, and 'N/A' codes are used for procedure type. A significant inconsistency exists between 'E-Procurement' being a characteristic and the automated check stating 'No e-submission'.

Empty 'Liable Person' field
N/A codes for Type/Procedure
Sustainability50/100

The tender includes 'community benefit requirements', indicating a focus on social aspects. However, there is no explicit mention of green procurement or innovation focus, and it is not EU funded, limiting its overall sustainability profile.

Not green procurement
No innovation focus
