Overview

What this covers

• LA3528F-DAFM-CFT for a Single Supplier Framework Agreement for a Gas Chromatograph with Triple Quadrupole Mass Spectrometer Detector, GC-QQQ

  The Department of Agriculture, Food and the Marine request to establish a Single Supplier Framework Agreement for the Supply, Delivery and Installation of a Gas Chromatograph with triple quadrupole Mass Spectrometer detector, GC-QQQ. These instruments will be used to carry out analyses for pesticide residues in food of plant and animal origin. To achieve this the laboratory uses multi-residue methods covering a wide range of pesticide classes to the standards required by European law. The instruments need to be capable of handling almost 200 pesticide residues in a single run and to be able to achieve the sensitivity required by EU law taking into account potential sample dilution. The instruments need to be robust and capable of analysing a wide range of food samples from fruit and vegetables to cereals to animal fat with minimum maintenance. Samples are analysed in batches, usually overnight, to meet strict deadlines. To meet the efficiency requirements of the laboratory instrument downtime needs to be kept to a minimum. Quality, Sample Identification, is a mandatory part of this evaluation. Suppliers MUST submit samples as part of the Award Criteria, Section A, Ability to meet the required accuracy and sensitivity of response when tested. Failure to complete this mandatory requirement by the submission deadline will result in elimination from the competition.
