## Summary

The procurement process for Healthcare Simulation Manikins is being conducted by the University of Wolverhampton Enterprise Limited, based in Wolverhampton, England. This procurement falls under the medical equipment category (CPV code 33100000) and is currently at the award stage. The tender was initiated on December 2, 2020, and the contract will be in effect from December 14, 2020, to December 13, 2021. The University has utilised a negotiated procedure without prior publication due to the specific requirements for human patient simulators used in healthcare training and assessments.

This contract presents a significant opportunity for SMEs in the medical equipment sector. Businesses that manufacture or supply specialised healthcare training tools, particularly those with experience in producing human patient simulators, would be well-suited to compete. Collaborating with educational institutions or healthcare providers could enhance their visibility and potential for growth within this niche market, particularly in the West Midlands region.

## Notice

The institute of Health employs simulation of clinical practice as a learning and teaching methodology for healthcare students, and the use of human patient simulators (HPS) manikins is an important aspect of this methodology. By using HPS manikins we are able to replicate real-life scenarios whilst minimising risk to real people. These manikins have a unique operating and control system in-built into the product. They also have unique serviceable components which are exclusive to their products alone. The HPS manikins are also used in summative assessments such as Objective Structured Clinical Examinations (OSCEs) where students must demonstrate their competence in a particular clinical skill by performing this or interacting with the HPS manikin. We need to have the same HPS manikins on all sites to ensure reliability/validity and fairness of assessments and therefore have relied on Regulation 32, 5(b), negotiated procedure without prior publication.
