Tender description

The Animal and Plant Health Agency (APHA), an executive agency of DEFRA, requires the supply, installation and maintenance of a new cloud-based temperature monitoring and alarm system to replace the existing system it uses to measure, monitor and provide alerts for the temperature of a variety of laboratory equipment and environments including ovens, incubators, refrigerators and incubators at 13 laboratory sites across the UK. APHA is seeking to replace the electronic system it currently uses to measure, monitor and provide alerts for the temperature of a variety of laboratory equipment and environments including ovens, incubators, freezers, ultra-freezers and walk in refrigerators at 13 laboratory sites across the UK. APHA requires the supply and installation of a new cloud-based system as well as maintenance for a three year period thereafter. APHA is certificated to BS EN ISO 9001 (2008) and accredited to ISO 17025 and ISO 17043, therefore any equipment supplied to it will be subject to servicing and testing regimes aligned or traceable to these quality standards. The equipment may also be used within GLP compliant facilities and be subject to the GLP Regulations 1999.
