Tender Notice
Summary of the contracting process

The Health & Safety Executive (HSE) is currently seeking suppliers for the purchase and installation of an autoclave, identified as tender HSE T3545*. This opportunity falls under the category of medical equipment, specifically classified as "Autoclaves" (CPV 33191110). The procurement is at the tender stage, with a closing date set for 2 January 2020. The installation of the new autoclave is to occur in HSE's laboratory block located in Buxton, Derbyshire (SK17 9JN), and it requires compliance with UK safety and pressure vessel standards.

This tender presents an excellent opportunity for businesses specialising in medical equipment, machinery installation, and engineering services, particularly those registered as small and medium enterprises (SMEs). Companies that can deliver a compact floor-standing steam sterilisation system, handle installation logistics, and provide necessary engineering support, will be well-positioned to compete. Businesses interested in expanding their portfolio in the health sector are encouraged to consider this opportunity, as meeting the specific requirements for waste treatment of biohazard materials could enhance their profile within the industry.

Notice Information

Notice Title

Purchase of an Autoclave

Notice Description

new autoclave will require delivery and installation by the supplier and will be located in the HSE Buxton laboratory block (autoclave room, L.2.24). The equipment will need to be delivered directly to that room by the supplier on an agreed date for installation. The delivery will require contractor engineering input for installation purposes (to be included in quotation) and will also require HSE's on-site Interserve Facilities Management engineering assistance/oversight to ensure that building services are available and appropriate for the item to be plumbed in to water supply and drainage etc. These utilities should already be available as the old autoclave also required similar connectivity. The autoclave must meet all UK pressure vessel and electrical safety standards and because HSE Buxton must treat hazard group 3 microbiological waste the autoclave must be capable of routinely treating bagged biohazard waste at 131oC for up to 1 hour. The purchased item must be a floor standing autoclave (steam sterilization) system that will be located in a dedicated wash/autoclave room at HSE, Buxton, Derbyshire (SK17 9JN). Space within the autoclave room is limited, requiring the installation of a compact system (see images of system to be replaced, below; this is also where the new system will be located). Steam/odour extraction is already in place above the system and the maximum available footprint for this floor standing system beneath the LEV is likely to be: 1.0 m x 1.25 m. NB. This includes any space required to the side of the autoclave to permit lid opening if a top loading, swing open lid is present. SEE FULL STATEMENT OF SERVICES
