Sykehusinnkjøp HF is, on behalf of Helse Bergen HF, planning to conduct a competition for the procurement of 2 aliquoting robots for automized sample processing in March — April 2017. In addition, we will procure an optimized solution for the controlled freezing of aliquoted sample material (-80 °C) and carriers for the samples safe transportation from the sample processing area to the automated ultra-low temperature storage system BIOS (-80 °C) at Biobank Haukeland.
Prior to the competition, we want to collect information on aliquoting robots, freezing solutions and transportation carriers available in the supply market to better understand the variations in functionality and technology. We are therefore inviting relevant suppliers to register their interest for dialogue meetings prior to the actual competition.
