No award evaluation criteria are recorded in the available procurement details.

For suppliers considering similar future work for Worcestershire County Council, this award demonstrates demand for EHCP-related educational psychology assessments at a substantial, county-wide service scale. A credible competitor would need access to appropriately qualified educational psychologists, the capacity to complete assessments reliably across Worcestershire, and experience producing professional assessments that support EHCP processes. Recruitment capability may also be relevant: the selected supplier is a healthcare recruitment specialist, indicating that sourcing and deploying suitable practitioners can form part of the delivery proposition. Suppliers should be equipped to manage a single, sizeable service requirement and deliver consistent specialist input for the Council. The contract was handled below threshold under a light-touch regime, providing an indication of the route used for this requirement.
