Sykehusinnkjøp HF intends, on behalf of Helse Førde, to procure 1 agar boiler of approx. 10 litres. The Contracting Authority wishes to enter into a procurement agreement for equipment and a framework agreement for equipment dependent consumables. The department needs an agar boiler that shall be used in microbiological diagnostics for automatic mixing, boiling, sterilising and cooling of agar based cultivation media. The equipment shall be used in a number of different cultivation media that have different requirements for sterilisation temperature, sterilisation time, dispensing temperature and stirring speed/capacity. The Agar boiler must have homogeneous media production, also with high viscosity. Different stirring speeds and mixing capacities are particularly important for both chocolate and coal media. It must be possible to set up separate programmes and it must have an autoclave program. The Agar boiler must also have a built-in printer. Information on stirring speeds is also wanted. List prices are also requested. In order to plan the coming procurement in the best possible way, we would like feedback from the supplier market for such equipment. We would like relevant tenderers within this market to provide information on their products/equipment. We would like information and brochures to be sent as soon as possible and by 19 May 2026. Tenderers can contact via the message function in the contracting authority ́s competition tool (KGV), Ivalua.For questions about the establishment of the user or functionality in the contracting authority ́s KGV, contact the contracting authority ́s KGV support by telephone +47 406 39 856 or by email to support@ms.kpmg.no.
