Supply of an automated system for rapid molecular testing (real-time PCR)

This tender concerns the supply of an automated system designed for the execution of rapid molecular tests, specifically real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (PCR). The scope of the contract extends beyond the initial provision of the equipment to include essential ongoing services. These services encompass the maintenance of the automated system, ensuring its operational efficiency and longevity. Furthermore, the contract will cover the potential integration of the system into existing IT architectures, facilitating seamless data management and workflow compatibility. A crucial component of the tender also includes the provision of necessary reagents required for conducting the molecular tests. The contract is established for an initial period of four years, with the possibility of four subsequent one-year renewals. The commencement date is set for the first day following the contract's conclusion. The renewal process is tacit, meaning the contract will automatically extend for one-year periods up to four times, unless either party formally notifies the other of their intention to terminate the agreement at least six months prior to the annual expiry date. In the event of non-renewal, no justification will be required, and no compensation will be payable.
