Overview

Canterbury Health Laboratories (CHL) is an operating unit of the Canterbury District Health Board (CDHB) and is a leading medical diagnostic laboratory in New Zealand.
CHL want to procure:

1. A Laboratory Solution pre-analytical handling and high volume analysers for the CHL main site in Christchurch, initially incorporating biochemistry and registration; this will encompass sample sorting, separating/aliquoting, handling and storage into a single integrated end-to-end workflow supported by middleware and a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) architecture capable of managing the required analyser informatics. Haematology/coagulation can either be included within the initial implementation phase of the solution or CHL’s existing haematology/coagulation platforms could be subsequently incorporated or an alternative solution as a future option proposed that allows for seamless integration of workflow.
The consolidation of testing currently performed outside the core laboratory may be considered within the laboratories strategic plan if it adds benefit for patients and clinicians; such testing should be considered within the scope of this procurement. The proposed platform/s should have the capability for future expansion to include the option of further “high volume” testing, including but not limited to molecular analysis.
2. An additional standalone biochemistry analyser at CHL Christchurch site to be able to perform batched work including studies and trials (or provide an alternate of how this can be performed through the automated solution)
3. A replacement biochemistry analyser at CHL Ashburton Laboratory
4. A replacement biochemistry analyser at the West Coast DHB Greymouth Laboratory
5. A seamless integration of haematology/coagulation analysers with the biochemistry systems across all three sites
6. Middleware architecture integrated to our Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) to manage the required individual analyser and solution informatics.

RFx Outcome

This tender has been awarded. Total spend value $ 19,850,000.
