What is being bought
This contract covers the supply of Covaris consumables required to support laboratory and diagnostic activities.The consumables are proprietary to Covaris equipment and are specifically designed to be fully compatible with existing systems in use. Due to this proprietary nature, Covaris is the original equipment manufacturer (OEM) and the only supplier able to provide suitable consumables. There are no equivalent third-party alternatives available that meet the required technical specifications without posing risks to equipment performance, reliability, or warranty.As a result, this procurement has been undertaken on a single supplier basis to ensure continuity of service, maintain system integrity, and support ongoing laboratory operations.
