Know whether your RFP is ready to publish.

Tendergate reviews the complete tender package, surfaces unclear or conflicting requirements, and shows quoted evidence for every finding plus a source label when available.

One full quality check included with a new account. No credit card required.

Completed Tendergate RFP quality check showing a publication verdict, executive summary, severity counts, and prioritized findings.

Every finding shows the problem, the risk, and the fix.

Open a finding to see the issue, a recommendation, and the source evidence — for example, the specification says 24 months where the contract draft says 36, so bidders would price two different terms. Your team checks the reasoning before changing the RFP.

Expanded critical RFP quality finding with issue explanation, recommended correction, and quoted source evidence.

A complete publication-readiness review.

The quality check reads every document and annex, then searches the package for omissions, contradictions, and rules that cannot be applied consistently.

  1. Clarity and measurability

    Finds vague requirements, undefined terms, unmeasurable specifications, ambiguous language, and unclear evidence expectations.

  2. Completeness

    Checks for missing scope, submission instructions, qualification requirements, contractual terms, milestones, and evaluation information bidders need.

  3. Cross-document consistency

    Compares dates, amounts, terminology, scope, responsibilities, and requirements across the main RFP, forms, and annexes.

  4. Fairness and competition

    Flags restrictive or discriminatory conditions that raise unjustified barriers for bidders.

  5. Evaluation and scoring

    Checks weightings, formulas, score bands, measurable criteria, and whether different evaluators can apply the method consistently.

  6. Timelines and process

    Reviews response periods, milestones, dependencies, deadline conflicts, clarification rules, submission mechanics, and award procedures.

  7. Budget and pricing

    Verifies arithmetic, cost breakdowns, commercial assumptions, and whether scope, quantities, contract term, and budget align.

  8. Supported legal obligations

    Checks applicable publisher duties from mounted jurisdiction rulebooks against their thresholds and conditions, with exact legal-source citations.

Useful findings, not a pass/fail score.

Each finding includes a calibrated severity, an explanation, quoted evidence, and a recommendation. The review records strengths too, so teams keep what already works.

Peer insights

See how your tender compares to similar published ones.

Currently available for Latvian tenders.

The review finds recently published tenders of comparable scope and sets your requirements against them. If you require a 60-month works warranty where similar tenders accepted 24 months, or a higher turnover threshold than comparable buyers asked for, you see the gap — with a link to the source tender.

  • Requirement benchmarks — warranty length, delivery timelines, and qualification thresholds measured against comparable tenders.
  • Stricter or looser than the market — e.g. a 60-month warranty where similar buyers accepted 24, so you see it before bidders price the risk in.
  • Source-linked — every comparison links to the peer tender it came from.

Complaint precedents

Learn from complaints filed against similar tenders.

Currently available for Latvian tenders.

Tendergate matches your requirements against published decisions of the Procurement Monitoring Bureau (IUB). If you require a specific certificate at submission and the bureau upheld a complaint against the same demand in a comparable tender — ruling an equivalent had to be accepted — the review flags it with the decision, so you widen the wording before a complaint stalls the procedure.

  • Matched to real decisions — draws on published IUB complaint rulings for comparable requirements.
  • Risk in context — the requirement that was challenged, how IUB ruled, and the change that avoids the same objection.
  • Fix before you publish — resolve a likely objection instead of restarting the procedure.

Three steps, with no procurement setup maze.

  1. Upload the RFP package

    Add the main RFP, specifications, forms, pricing schedules, contract drafts, and annexes together.

  2. Run the quality check

    The existing Tendergate review agent reads the package and checks publication readiness with source evidence.

  3. Resolve the findings

    Prioritize critical and major issues, verify them against quoted evidence and any available source label, and export the review for your team.

Questions before your first check

What should I upload?

Upload the full package you plan to publish: the RFP, technical specification, evaluation methodology, pricing forms, contract draft, and annexes.

Does this replace legal review?

No. Tendergate flags risks using supported jurisdiction rulebooks and source evidence, but it is decision support rather than legal advice.

Can I see where a finding came from?

Yes. Findings include source references and evidence so your team can verify the issue in the uploaded documents.

What happens after the free check?

Your result remains available. To run another quality check, purchase additional Tendergate credits.
