Offshore EPC Tender Intelligence System with LlamaIndex

Qatar's massive offshore oil field expansion tenders feature thousands of technical specifications, HSE addendums, and commercial terms. Build an advanced RAG and agentic evaluation framework using LlamaIndex with hybrid vector/BM25 retrieval. Achieve a retrieval Mean Reciprocal Rank (MRR) above 0.85 on engineering query evaluations.

Challenge brief

What you are building

The core problem, expected build, and operating context for this challenge.

Construct an agentic RAG index using LlamaIndex with hybrid retrieval and reranking to answer technical queries on Qatar offshore EPC tender documents.

Delivery guide

How work is evaluated

Evaluation

Measures retrieval MRR and answer correctness on complex offshore EPC tender queries.

Datasets

Challenge datasets

Public datasets, plus the private datasets you have access to.

Evaluation rubric

How submissions are scored

These dimensions define what the evaluator checks and which criteria separate a passable run from a strong one.

Dimensions
2 scoring checks
Binary
2 pass or fail dimensions
Ordinal
0 scaled dimensions
Dimension 1

source_citation_presence

Checks that synthesized response includes explicit document page citations

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Dimension 2

retrieval_mrr

Mean Reciprocal Rank of relevant chunks in top-5 retrieval results • target: 0.85 • range: 0-1

Binary check

This dimension contributes its full weight only when the submission satisfies the requirement. Partial credit is not awarded.

Learning goals

What you should walk away with

  • Implement hierarchical document indexing and hybrid vector + BM25 search in LlamaIndex

  • Incorporate reranking models (e.g., Cohere or sentence-transformers) for context optimization

  • Build dynamic Query Engine Tools integrated into a LlamaIndex agent workflow

  • Evaluate retrieval quality using TrueLens or LlamaIndex RAG evaluation metrics
