## Description
The University of Sheffield has tendered on behalf of the School of Clinical Dentistry for the supply, installation, commissioning, training and maintenance of 'Dental Phantom Head Patient Simulators'.
Scope of Requirement:
The Phantom Heads suite within the School of Clinical Dentistry at the University of Sheffield is an essential and heavily used teaching facility. The facility is used by students across all
clinical programmes at both Undergraduate and Post Graduate level and is an essential facility for simulated teaching.
This facility is used for learning and teaching of all dental operative procedures that are standard in dental undergraduate and postgraduate educational curricula.
The 'Phantom Head Patient Simulators' are in full operation constantly, every day of the year (excluding weekends and public holidays and a two-week period in August for servicing/maintenance) and are used for approximately 28 - 35 hours per week.
They are used by multiple cohorts of students, across multiple programmes, and as such they must be very robust and easy to maintain.
The existing 'Phantom Heads Patient Simulators' themselves are now 17 years old and in need of replacement.
As the 'Phantom Head Patient Simulators' are integral (fixed) to the fabric of the teaching space, and not mobile, the removal and replacement of the 'Phantom Head Patient Simulators' requires associated estates work (which will be tendered for separately and is not included in this contract award).
As part of the 2023 refurbishment the School of Clinical Dentistry at the University of Sheffield is purchasing 56 x 'Phantom Head Patient Simulators' (including 2 x tutor/demonstrator units), associated accessories and benching and cabinetry, plus the installation/commissioning and annual support and maintenance as part of the refurbishment of our Clinical Skills Learning Environment (CSLE). 
The CSLE is currently divided into two rooms (one large room and one small room).
This specification describes the requirements for the 'Phantom Head Patient Simulator' units that will form part of the CSLE refurbishment planned for summer 2023. A complete
refurbishment of the facility that is shared over two teaching rooms - one large room and one small room on the second floor.
