Zero Carbon – Consult, Design and Install - Dynamic Purchasing System DPS - Y21009

This tender for a Zero Carbon Dynamic Purchasing System demonstrates a strong commitment to sustainability and innovation but suffers from significant gaps in clarity, completeness, and fairness due to missing evaluation criteria and a lack of e-submission.

The tender defines the procedure type (DPS) and assigns a relevant CPV code. However, the absence of explicit evaluation criteria and the 'Required: No' status for the main tender document are notable compliance risks. The missing reveal date is a minor procedural oversight.

The description of the DPS and its four lots is clear and unambiguous. However, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria and the vague nature of financial requirements significantly reduce the overall clarity for potential bidders.

While basic information like title, reference, organization, value, and duration are provided, the tender is critically incomplete due to the explicit lack of evaluation criteria. Furthermore, the 'Required: No' status for the main PDF document suggests that essential, detailed tender documentation may not be fully or clearly provided.

The lack of specified evaluation criteria is a major fairness concern, as bidders cannot understand the basis for assessment. The absence of an e-submission option also creates potential barriers to equal access. Requirements themselves do not appear tailored.

The absence of electronic submission is a significant practical drawback in modern procurement. While duration is specified, the contract start date is not, and the ambiguity around full document access (due to 'Required: No' status) reduces practicality for bidders.

Most key fields are populated, and dates are logical. Minor inconsistencies include an empty 'Liable Person' field and the 'Over Sum Limit: No' flag for a 400M EUR value, which might be context-dependent but appears unusual.

The tender scores highly in sustainability due to its explicit focus on 'Zero Carbon' and 'low or zero carbon aspirations,' along with an 'Innovation Focus.' However, the absence of explicit social criteria and not being EU funded prevents a perfect score.
