AI Multi Mini Interview Solution
Buyer: Sheffield Hallam University
Description
The AI Multi Mini Solution is a specialist recruitment platform and methodology that the University wants to trial through a two-year pilot. The pilot would allow the University to test whether the solution improves applicant experience, equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) outcomes, operational efficiency and student conversion rates before committing to a longer-term procurement. The proposed supplier has been selected because its approach is considered technically unique, research-validated and not currently available from other providers in a similarly scalable or evidence-based format. Rather than running a full competitive tender now, the University intends to use the pilot to gather evidence, assess effectiveness, and define future procurement requirements. The pilot would: Introduce and evaluate the supplier's recruitment platform and methodology. Measure its impact on recruitment processes and outcomes. Provide data and evidence to inform a future compliant procurement exercise. Minimise disruption to upcoming recruitment cycles by enabling faster implementation. The arrangement is limited to two years, proportionate in value, and fully documented to ensure transparency and compliance with Procurement Act 2023 (PA23) principles
