MANAGED EQUIPMENT SERVICE CONTRACT FOR THE PROVISION, SUPPORT AND MAINTENANCE OF TWO PORTABLE EMG/NCS SYSTEMS

Tender description

The Department of Clinical Neurophysiology at Beaumont Hospital requires the provision of two portable electromyography and nerve condition study (EMG/NCS) systems. The provided systems must integrate with the current workflow and existing equipment installed in the department (Dantec and Keypoint) and the Contracting Authority’s existing IT infrastructure. In first instance, a managed equipment service contract of five years’ duration will be entered into with the successful tenderer, encompassing the provision of the required equipment, the delivery of initial and ongoing training and the provision of all required support and maintenance. The successful tenderer will be required to recoup the cost of providing the required equipment during this five year period. Following the expiry of the initial five year managed equipment service contract, and as a recurring option that may be availed of solely at the discretion of the Contracting Authority, subsequent one-year contracts for the support and maintenance of the systems in question may be awarded until the obsolescence of the equipment. At all points during the initial five-year contract and any subsequent extension, ownership of the equipment shall remain with the successful tenderer.
