    EU tender profile compliance matrix (Excel)

    Before an EU institution or agency tender, or a bid for an EU-funded service contract, goes in, someone has to check every person proposed against the minimum requirements of the profile they are proposed for. One person short of a year, or without the required certificate, can sink the offer. This Excel workbook lists each person with their profile and compares what the profile requires with what the CV shows: years of IT or general experience and of specific experience, with Pass or Fail worked out by formula, then education, certifications and CEFR language levels, with Pass or Fail only where the CV shows the item. Each row ends with an overall Compliant, Not compliant or To check, the evidence reference and what is still to check. A summary sheet counts the results per requirement as you edit. Formatix fills it from the CVs and the profile requirements in your notes.

    Bid teams usually do this check in a spreadsheet built the night before the deadline. This one is ready, and it never marks an item as met on unclear evidence: a level written as "fluent" is not a Pass for a CEFR requirement, and an item the CV does not settle stays blank for the bid team to decide. A person is Not compliant when any area fails, Compliant only when every stated requirement passes, and To check otherwise. The formulas stay live, so a corrected CV changes the result.

    Questions about this template

    When does a requirement show Pass?
    Years of experience are compared by formula with the requirement. Education, certificates and language levels show Pass or Fail only when the requirement is stated and the CV allows a clear check; otherwise the cell stays blank and the person's overall result is To check.
    Does it replace the tender's own forms?
    No. It is a working tool for the bid team. The tender documents and their forms prevail.
    Can I add people or requirements?
    Yes. Rows and columns can be added in Excel; the summary counts follow the rows.
    Can I download this template?
    Yes. A free, editable Excel version with neutral branding and a fictional example bid team is on this page, to fill in by hand. To have it rebuilt in your brand and filled automatically, use it in Formatix; you keep an editable Excel file.
