Tender Quality Score

This tender for employee benefits and services exhibits significant flaws, including a critical CPV code mismatch and the absence of explicit evaluation criteria, which severely impact its legal compliance, clarity, and fairness. While the service description is clear, fundamental information gaps and inconsistencies raise serious concerns about the procurement process.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance30/100

The most critical issue is the incorrect CPV code (Parcel transport services instead of employee benefits), which is a fundamental misclassification. The absence of a reveal date prevents assessment of the submission period's reasonableness. The statement 'Over Sum Limit: No' for a 50M EUR framework is highly questionable and suggests a potential misapplication of procurement thresholds.

Incorrect CPV code (60161000 for Employee Benefits)
Missing reveal date
Clarity40/100

While the description of the required employee benefits and technical capabilities is generally clear and well-detailed, the complete absence of specified evaluation criteria is a major clarity deficit. The incorrect CPV code also introduces significant ambiguity regarding the tender's true nature.

No evaluation criteria specified
Incorrect CPV code causing confusion
Completeness50/100

Basic information like title, organization, value, and duration are present. However, critical elements such as explicit evaluation criteria, mandatory exclusion, eligibility, and financial requirements are not detailed in the provided text. The 'Liable Person' field is empty, and only a summary of one document is provided, limiting a full assessment of completeness.

Missing evaluation criteria
Missing explicit exclusion/eligibility/financial requirements in provided text
Fairness45/100

The lack of specified evaluation criteria is a significant barrier to fairness, as bidders cannot understand how their proposals will be assessed. The incorrect CPV code could mislead potential suppliers and limit fair competition. The missing reveal date prevents an assessment of the reasonableness of the preparation period. The automated check's flag of 'No e-submission' (if accurate) would also be a fairness concern.

No evaluation criteria specified
Incorrect CPV code potentially misleading bidders
Practicality50/100

The tender provides a document URL, clear contract start date, and duration. However, the automated check indicates 'No e-submission,' which, if true, represents a significant practical hurdle for bidders in modern procurement. While the URL points to an e-sourcing platform, this contradiction needs clarification.

Potential lack of e-submission (contradiction with platform URL and automated check)
Data Consistency35/100

There are several significant data inconsistencies. The CPV code for 'Parcel transport services' is entirely inconsistent with the tender's subject of 'Employee Benefits and Services.' The 'Value Classified: Yes' contradicts the explicit disclosure of a 50M EUR estimated value. The 'Over Sum Limit: No' for such a high value is also highly inconsistent with standard procurement thresholds. The 'Liable Person' field is empty.

CPV code mismatch with tender description
'Value Classified: Yes' contradicts disclosed estimated value
Sustainability60/100

The tender's subject matter, 'Employee Benefits and Services,' inherently includes strong social aspects such as promoting wellbeing, financial stability, and personal development. A 'Green car scheme' is also listed as a service, indicating some environmental consideration. 'Innovation Focus' is explicitly stated as a characteristic. However, the provided text does not detail explicit sustainability criteria for the bidders' operations or proposals.

Lack of explicit sustainability criteria for bidder selection/operations

Strengths

Clear and detailed description of required services and technical capabilities
Estimated value, contract duration, and start date are specified
Innovation focus is explicitly stated as a characteristic
URL to the e-sourcing platform is provided
The nature of the services inherently supports social wellbeing

Concerns

Critical CPV code mismatch (Parcel transport services for Employee Benefits)
Complete absence of specified evaluation criteria
Missing reveal date, preventing assessment of submission period reasonableness
Contradiction regarding e-submission (platform URL vs. automated check)
Inconsistencies in financial classification ('Value Classified: Yes' vs. disclosed value, 'Over Sum Limit: No' for 50M EUR)

Recommendations

1. Immediately correct the CPV code to accurately reflect 'Employee Benefits and Services' to ensure proper market reach and legal compliance.
2. Publish clear and objective evaluation criteria to ensure transparency and fairness for all bidders.
3. Provide the tender's reveal date to allow for assessment of the submission period's reasonableness and ensure full disclosure.
