[DescrShort]

Tenders are sought for the supply and installation of a single main random-access type sample handling/processing platform for the Viral Serology laboratory which currently receives approximately 168,000 samples and performs 735,200 tests per year. The majority of samples received are blood samples which are investigated using serological methods on immunoassay platforms.
This sample handler/processor is expected to process approximately 90-99% of the workload of primary sample tubes received in VSER laboratory/NVRL.
Interfacing (through a single data manager/middleware) to allow sample identification, and bidirectional transfer of test requests/sample identification/reflex test requests and sample archiving.
