Award criteria: The most economic tender

Technical requirements: Prequalification for a contest for a fully digitalised x-ray laboratory and mobile x-ray machines for Bergen Hospital Trust
The contracting authority would like to receive tender offers for 1 fully digitalised x-ray machine for general use at the children and youth hospital for Bergen Hospital and 2 mobile x-ray machines for the children and youth hospital and for the emergency department.
Fully digitalised x-ray laboratory: The equipment will be used on children and youths aged 0-18 years. The x-ray machine will be used for examinations of small skeletons, hips, knees, back, abdomen, thorax, scoliosis, and HKA stitching. The equipment must consist of an operator console, motorised ceiling pipe, motorised table, and wall bucky. It must include two large and one small detector, all of which are wireless. The weight and design of the portable detectors are important. The table must have easy accessibility for children. It must be possible to use the stitching function for both standing, lying, and sitting pictures. For good ergonomics and work flow, we would like a flexible solution with pre-set auto positions. It is an advantage if the wall bucky can be angled, tilted, and moved sideways up to the table. The equipment must give pictures of good image quality with a low radiation dose, both on premature patients (under 1 kg) and adults. It must be easy to adapt the protocols to different patient sizes, and it must have a user friendly organisation.
Mobile x-ray machine: The machine will be used in newborn intensive care and on other monitored patients. The size of the machine, driving and manoeuvring qualities are of particular importance for use  in newborn intensive care. This also applies to the size, weight, and design of the detector, the detector must be suitable for incubators.
In regards to operation and practical use, the detectors must be able to be moved between mobile X-ray machines and fully digitalised X-ray machines.
