Description

The procurement includes an automation system with connected analysis instruments combined in a fully automatic system, including middleware, conveyor belt, pre-analytical functions (replacement of the current automation system at Kalnes), as well as free-standing instruments at the locations in Askim, Fredrikstad, Moss, Sarpsborg and Halden in order to ensure method equality and connection to a joint middleware system. The current analyses shall be maintained and the automation system shall have the capacity to ensure an annual increase of 4% from the analysis volume in 2025. The automation system shall cover the disciplines of clinical chemistry (including lowering and ionised calcium), immune chemistry, haematology, coagulation, infection serology, HbA1c and allergy and auto-immunity. It ought to have a high degree of flexibility both as regards the physical system and middleware, and it should easily include new analysis instruments, modules and tests (analyses) that can be relevant in the coming years. Later expansion with other disciplines than those mentioned above can be relevant. The automation system shall see to the receipt and distribution of samples for other parts and disciplines in the Centre for Laboratory Medicine. The aim of the procurement is to see to the Hospital Østfold ́s level of activity and the need for development over the next 10 years, and the solution shall contribute to realising the Centre for Laboratory Medicine ́s basic idea that everything that can be automated shall be automated and everything that can be connected to an automation system shall be connected independently of the discipline.
