Tender Quality Score

This tender for soldier's clothing production and product development is well-structured and clear, demonstrating strong legal compliance and data consistency. While it excels in clarity and completeness, there are minor concerns regarding potential limitations on competition due to specific evaluation criteria and a lack of explicit green or social sustainability aspects, despite a clear focus on innovation.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance85/100

The tender demonstrates strong legal compliance, adhering to EU and international procurement standards through references to ESPD and WTO GPA. Deadlines are reasonable, and CPV codes are appropriate. The 'Type: A (Code: N/A)' and 'Procedure: A (Code: N/A)' are minor ambiguities but do not indicate non-compliance.

Ambiguity in 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes (A, N/A)
Clarity90/100

The tender's description is clear and detailed, outlining the scope of services unambiguously. Requirements are well-structured and understandable, supported by comprehensive AI-extracted details and specific documents. Evaluation criteria are explicitly defined with a transparent scoring methodology.

Completeness85/100

All essential basic information, financial details, and timeline elements are present. The tender includes a comprehensive set of 13 documents covering technical specifications, evaluation criteria, security requirements, and draft framework agreements. The NUTS code is provided, ensuring geographical context.

Specific 'Location Info' is noted as 'Puudub' (missing)
Fairness75/100

The tender generally promotes fairness through full document access, disclosed value, reasonable deadlines, e-procurement, and objective evaluation criteria. However, the evaluation criterion favoring a higher 'number of main production units' could potentially limit competition by disadvantaging smaller, highly efficient bidders or new market entrants.

Evaluation criterion 'number of main production units' (highest is best) may limit competition
Practicality80/100

The tender supports electronic submission and e-procurement, enhancing accessibility. Key dates such as contract start and duration are clearly specified. While the estimated value is provided, specific financing sources beyond this are not detailed, which is a minor point for practicality.

Lack of specific financing source details beyond estimated value
Data Consistency90/100

Data consistency is high, with most key fields populated and logical, sequential dates. There are no detected suspensions or disputes, indicating a stable procurement process. Minor gaps in 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes and specific location information do not significantly impact overall data integrity.

Minor gaps in 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes (N/A)
Specific 'Location Info' is noted as 'Puudub' (missing)
Sustainability60/100

The tender explicitly includes 'product development' and 'product improvement,' indicating a clear focus on innovation. However, it lacks explicit green procurement or social responsibility criteria, which are increasingly important aspects of modern public procurement.

Not explicitly green procurement
No explicit social criteria

Strengths

Clear and detailed description of the procurement object and services.
Comprehensive documentation, including technical specifications, evaluation criteria, and draft framework agreements.
Explicitly defined and objective evaluation criteria with a clear scoring methodology.
Strong legal compliance, referencing EU and international procurement standards (ESPD, WTO GPA).
Support for electronic submission and e-procurement, ensuring accessibility.

Concerns

Evaluation criterion based on the 'number of main production units' (highest is best) could potentially limit competition by favoring larger, established bidders.
Lack of explicit green procurement or social responsibility criteria.
Ambiguity in the 'Type' and 'Procedure' codes (A, N/A).
Specific location information is noted as 'Puudub' (missing).
AI analysis could not process XML/RTF documents, potentially hiding details (though not a tender issue).

Recommendations

1. Re-evaluate the 'number of main production units' as an evaluation criterion to ensure it does not unduly restrict competition; consider alternative criteria focusing on production capacity or quality.
2. Integrate explicit green procurement and social responsibility clauses into future tenders, especially for large-value contracts.
3. Clarify the specific procurement procedure type and code for better transparency.
