Original Tender Description

We are seeking pre‑built, ready‑to‑use virtual reality (VR) headsets that already host the required immersive training programme. This programme enables users to experience the effects of trauma, abuse, and neglect from the perspective of a child. It is a clinically‑led, technology‑enabled behavioural change tool designed to deepen adults' understanding of a child's emotions, triggers, and needs. The aim is to improve the quality of care, support and guidance provided. These VR headsets will be used across Education, Social Care and the SEND service. The procurement exercise will consolidate the existing Early Years, Adoption & Fostering, and Virtual School requirements into a single contract, delivering better value for money for the council.

Tender Quality Score

This tender for virtual reality headsets demonstrates good clarity and fairness, though it lacks explicit detail on evaluation criteria and sustainability aspects.

Score Breakdown

Legal Compliance75/100

The tender adheres to open competition procedures for below-threshold procurements. Key information like CPV codes and organization details are present. The primary concern is the potentially short submission deadline, which might not allow adequate preparation for all potential bidders. No disputes or suspensions are noted.

Submission deadline may be too short
Clarity80/100

The description of the VR headsets and the associated training program is clear and detailed, effectively communicating the purpose and intended use. Technical requirements are well-defined. However, the absence of specified evaluation criteria makes it difficult for bidders to fully understand how their submissions will be assessed.

Missing evaluation criteria
Completeness70/100

Most basic information such as title, reference, organization, estimated value, and duration is provided. The CPV code is present. However, the lack of accessible document content for the four listed tender documents significantly hinders completeness, preventing a full assessment of all requirements.

No document content available
Fairness85/100

The tender is open to all participants, and the estimated value is disclosed. The requirements are described in a general, objective manner without appearing tailored to specific companies. The use of an open competition procedure promotes fairness. The absence of e-submission details could slightly impact fairness if not properly managed.

No e-submission details provided
Practicality65/100

While the contract start date and duration are specified, the lack of explicit information regarding e-submission methods and financing details reduces practicality. The absence of direct links to tender documents further complicates accessibility for potential bidders.

No e-submission specified
No financing information provided
Data Consistency90/100

Key fields such as title, organization, value, and deadlines are populated logically. There are no noted disputes or suspensions, and the dates provided appear consistent with the tender status.

Sustainability50/100

The tender does not explicitly mention any green procurement, social aspects, innovation focus, or EU funding, which are important considerations for modern public procurement.
