BHIC Clinical Skills Immersive Rooms

The University of Birmingham ("the University") requires a Contractor to design, supply and install four immersive teaching and simulation rooms for the purposes of healthcare education. The works will take place within the University's Birmingham Health Innovation Campus.
The Contractor shall be responsible for (a) Systems Design (b) Project Management/Installation of Equipment (c) Programming/commissioning of equipment (d) Account management (e) Planned preventative maintenance and reactive maintenance and (f) Ongoing content development.
The following technical requirements have been scoped:
1) High-fidelity projection or LED screens (with 270° to 360° capability and room-specific mapping and calibration to align accurately with physical features);
2) Separate audio, video, and control systems for each room (to enable independent operability to run concurrent or isolated simulations)
3) Multisensory effect management such as directional audio and programmable lighting, with scent systems recommended.
4) Solution to include pre-built UK-aligned healthcare scenarios and no-code authoring tools (to support environmental distractions, time-critical events, branching logic, team coordination, and real-time instructor interventions).
5) Library of pre-built environments and clinically accurate scenarios; both clinical (e.g., hospital wards, emergency departments) and non-clinical (e.g., home settings, public spaces) which are realistically represented to influence learner decision-making
6) Gamification and escape room collaborative learning features are required
7) Integration with pre-existing mannequin, AV, and learning management system networks.
8) Full compliance with accessibility standards (WCAG 2.2 AA), GMC and NMC education standards, GDPR, security protocols, and University non-functional requirements
Timescales:
A full handover of the facility (following testing and user training) will be required in time for the commencement of the 2027/28...
