Tender Quality Score

This tender presents a clear description of services but suffers from critical omissions regarding evaluation criteria, a missing reveal date, and significant data inconsistencies, particularly with the contract start date.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance65/100

The absence of a reveal date makes it impossible to verify compliance with minimum notice periods, which is a significant legal concern. The AI summary also indicates a lack of explicit mandatory exclusion, eligibility, and financial criteria, which are typically required by procurement regulations. However, the procedure type is stated, CPV is correct, and there are no disputes.

Missing reveal date
Lack of explicit mandatory exclusion/eligibility/financial criteria in provided text
Clarity55/100

While the tender description clearly outlines the services and framework objective, the critical absence of specified evaluation criteria severely impacts clarity. Bidders cannot effectively prepare proposals without understanding how they will be assessed.

No evaluation criteria specified
Completeness60/100

Basic information such as title, organization, reference, deadlines, value, duration, and location are provided. However, the tender lacks explicit mandatory exclusion grounds, eligibility requirements, financial requirements, and crucially, evaluation criteria in the provided text, which are essential for a complete tender package.

Missing explicit mandatory exclusion/eligibility/financial requirements
Missing evaluation criteria
Fairness50/100

Document access via e-sourcing and value disclosure are positive aspects. Requirements appear generic and not tailored. However, the absence of evaluation criteria creates a significant fairness issue, compromising transparency and the ability for all bidders to compete on an equal, informed footing. The missing reveal date also affects the assessment of reasonable preparation time.

No evaluation criteria specified
Missing reveal date
Practicality45/100

Electronic submission is supported, and relevant URLs are provided. The contract duration is clear. However, the contract start date being identical to the submission deadline is highly impractical and unrealistic, indicating a significant error in the tender's timeline planning.

Contract start date is the same as the submission deadline
Data Consistency40/100

There are several inconsistencies. The contract start date is identical to the submission deadline, which is a severe logical error. There is also a discrepancy between the estimated value stated in EUR and the framework threshold mentioned in GBP, which requires clarification. Minor fields like 'Liable Person' are empty.

Contract start date identical to submission deadline
Currency/value discrepancy (EUR vs GBP)
Sustainability20/100

The tender does not explicitly mention any green procurement, social aspects, or innovation focus. This indicates a missed opportunity to integrate sustainability considerations into the procurement process.

No explicit green, social, or innovation criteria

Strengths
