MRI Compatible Equipment for Cerebro-Vascular Physiology Suite
Authority: Prifysgol Bangor / Bangor University (Education)
What is being bought5 lots · detail below
Published requirement descriptionThe Bangor Imaging Cerebral Physiology (BICP) lab is involved in research into the brain’s response to hypoxia and other environmental challenges. BICP has been awarded internal funding to enhance its’ imaging and measurement capabilities. The BICP therefore is looking to procure a robust and complementary set of equipment to extend its’ research from healthy young participants to patient cohorts.

Lots and requirements (5)Procurement structure
5 lots · no lot values published · evaluation weights differ by lotPurchase of equipment that will allow rigorous monitoring and control of physiologic variables, such as blood gases, levels of exertion, and changes in blood pressure and heart rate to complement the fNIRS. Please see specification for further details.
Lot #1Portable functional near infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS) system
The purchase of a portable and MRI compatible fNIRS device, which will provide a measure of regional cerebral physiology and blood flow that can be collected both in the Bangor MRI scanner, and in an environmental chamber.
The device will also allow a range of other research avenues - neurofeedback experiments to improve task-based efficiency, monitoring of cerebral responses in pharmaco-physiology studies, and monitoring functional changes in occupational rehabilitation after acquired brain injury, or in Parkinson’s disease, that will benefit the wider research community of the BICP in the School of Human and Behavioural Sciences
Lot #2An MRI compatible Ergometer to allow measurements of cerebral physiology under exertion
Lot #3MRI compatible system for modifying blood gas levels, used to further study cerebral physiology under environmental
Lot #4MRI compatible monitoring system for measurement of peripheral physiological variables
Lot #5MRI compatible infusion pumps for drug or fluid delivery for pharmacokinetic studies.

How this buyer will score bids.
The evaluation criteria and weights exactly as published on the notice, grouped by family (price, quality, social value and so on).
Lots publish different evaluation splits; there is no single procedure weighting.
- Price carries 40–60 points depending on the lot; most lots put it at 60 points.
Price arithmetic assumes straight proportional scoring; the tender pack may use another formula.
