2.       The Question

The potential Bidder observes that:

 "In the section" VII. Specifications, paragraph 2 ", states that:

 

In case of electrical medical equipment, each offered device shall also be compliant to the following standards and/or regulations:

·  IEC 60601-1 (Medical electrical equipment - General requirements for basic safety and essential performance);

·  IEC 60601 Collateral Standards applicable to the specific type of offered device (refer to IEC list of Collateral Standards);

 

Copies of the original certifications, issued by authorized notified bodies, or declarations of compliance issued by the manufacturer of the medical device shall be included in the bid.

 

These standards apply to medical devices.

Other similar standards apply to in vitro diagnostic devices (IVD medical device): IEC 61010-2-101: 2015: Safety requirements for electrical equipment for measurement, srnrtol and laboratory use - Part 2-101: Particular requirements for in vitro diagnostic ( IVD) medical equipment.

Since the Centrifuge,Lot 5 procurement item,is a diagnostic in vitro diagnostic instrument and can not meet the standards set out in Section VII, paragraph 2, and is subject to the IUC 61010-2-101: 2015 certification .

Will this be taken into account when considering Lot 5 on bids?
