What is being bought
Published requirement descriptionThe Scottish Police Authority (“the Authority”) has a requirement for the renewal of the servicing contract for their 5 x Biotage® Extrahera Automated Sample Preparation System (“Drug Extraction System”), for a 3 year period, with one optional extension period, to support the resilience of its toxicology service.
From the market analysis undertaken, it is the firm proposal and recommendation that only one supplier can satisfy this specific requirement of SPA Forensic Services. The Biotage Extrahera including Dual Turbovap system is trademarked technology, the specification of which is considered to be unique, resulting in Biotage’s instruments being unable to be serviced by any other Supplier.
