Microbiological safety cabinet and vertical ultra-low-temperature freezer for the SEARCH-VASC project

Summary

The procurement has two supply lots for the SEARCH-VASC research project: a microbiological safety cabinet for handling cell cultures under sterile conditions and a vertical ultra-low-temperature freezer for storing samples. Both items are to be delivered to the Victor Babes Institute in Bucharest, with a planned delivery period of six months for each lot. The estimated total value is RON 70,200: RON 26,400 for the cabinet and RON 43,800 for the freezer. Bidders may tender for both lots, and both may be awarded to the same bidder. Bidders must be properly registered, meet the average-turnover requirement for the last three years (the notice does not state the required amount), and demonstrate experience delivering technically similar products during the last three years. The European Single Procurement Document must be submitted; a joint bid must also include a consortium agreement and a separate procurement document for each participant. Award criteria are price (60 points), energy consumption (20 points) and warranty (20 points). The warranty must be at least 24 months; a 60-month warranty receives the maximum warranty score. Bids must be submitted electronically, and electronic invoicing is required during contract performance.
