Network Rail Commercial Property Maintenance Framework PSQ

This tender presents a clear scope of works but suffers from significant deficiencies in legal compliance, completeness, and fairness due to missing critical requirements and evaluation criteria. Practicality and data consistency also show notable issues.

The tender lacks detailed mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, and financial requirements, which are fundamental for legal compliance in public procurement. The 'Code: N/A' for procedure type is also a minor concern, though the submission deadline is reasonable.

The description of works and technical capability requirements are clear and well-detailed. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria and the lack of other crucial requirements (exclusion, eligibility, financial) significantly reduce the overall clarity for potential bidders.

While basic information is present, the critical absence of mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, financial requirements, and evaluation criteria makes this tender significantly incomplete. The status of the single document being 'Required: No' is also confusing.

The broad technical requirements and the characteristic 'Divided into Parts' are positive for promoting competition and SME access. However, the complete absence of evaluation criteria severely impacts transparency and objectivity. The lack of e-submission also hinders equal access.

The lack of electronic submission and a direct document URL creates practical hurdles for bidders. The contract start date being identical to the submission deadline is highly impractical and likely an error, suggesting a lack of realistic planning for the procurement timeline.

There are notable inconsistencies, including the contract start date being identical to the submission deadline, and a discrepancy between the estimated value in EUR and the document summary mentioning GBP. The 'Code: N/A' for procedure types also indicates incomplete data.

The tender explicitly lacks any mention of green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus, indicating no integration of modern sustainability criteria.
