Tender Quality Score

Overall, the tender documentation is largely clear and meets basic requirements, but significant gaps in transparency and completeness reduce its overall quality. The use of a DPS is appropriate for the nature of the works.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

Legal compliance is good, with a clearly defined procedure type and CPV code, and no disputes. Concerns include the classified value, missing evaluation criteria, and the absence of a reveal date, which impact transparency.

Estimated value is classified
No evaluation criteria specified
Clarity80/100

The description and AI-extracted eligibility and technical requirements are clear and unambiguous. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria reduces the clarity of the overall procurement process.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness70/100

Basic information, duration, and location are provided. However, the estimated value is not disclosed, specific financial requirements are not detailed in the summary, and evaluation criteria are entirely missing, representing significant gaps.

Estimated value not disclosed
No specific financial requirements detailed in summary
Fairness85/100

The requirements, while specialized, do not appear tailored to a specific company, and e-procurement is enabled. However, the classified value and the absence of evaluation criteria significantly impact transparency and fairness for potential bidders.

Estimated value is classified
No evaluation criteria specified
Practicality65/100

The contract duration is clearly specified. Practicality is reduced by the contradiction regarding e-submission support, the past contract start date for an active DPS, and the lack of disclosed value and specific financial requirements.

Contradiction on e-submission support (E-Procurement characteristic vs. 'No e-submission' issue)
Contract start date (2021) is in the past for an active DPS with a future submission deadline (2026)
Data Consistency90/100

The data is largely consistent, particularly for a Dynamic Purchasing System where the contract start date can refer to the DPS establishment. Minor gaps like 'Liable Person' and the e-submission contradiction are noted but do not severely undermine overall consistency.

Contradiction between 'E-Procurement' characteristic and 'No e-submission' automated check result
Sustainability50/100

The tender does not explicitly include any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. It is also not EU funded, indicating a neutral stance on sustainability criteria based on the provided information.

Not green procurement
No social criteria

Strengths

Clear description of the DPS purpose and scope
Well-defined eligibility and technical capability requirements
Use of a Dynamic Purchasing System (DPS) for ongoing supplier engagement
E-Procurement characteristic for accessibility
No disputes or suspensions flagged

Concerns

Estimated value is classified, reducing transparency for bidders
Evaluation criteria are not specified, impacting fairness and clarity
No specific financial requirements detailed in the provided summary
Contradiction regarding e-submission support
Lack of explicit sustainability, social, or innovation criteria

Recommendations

1. Disclose the estimated value or provide a clear rationale for its classification, and detail specific financial requirements.
