About this file
This is a bid specification document from the Washington Department of Health (DOH) detailing requirements for a Dried Blood Spot Puncher system. The specification outlines requirements for an ergonomically designed puncher capable of processing multiple plates simultaneously, with a capacity to punch at least six plates at one time and handle approximately 800 dried blood spot cards daily, six days per week. The system must include installation, setup, calibration, and performance verification at the Public Health Laboratory, along with a two-year extended warranty that includes preventative maintenance in the second year.
The technical specifications require an eight or more plate deck system with dual punch size capabilities, multiple punch activation methods, disk detection capabilities, and static control features. The vendor must provide customer support with same-day response and on-site service within 72 hours, comprehensive training including 8 hours of hands-on instruction for 2-4 personnel, and 6 hours of software training for up to 4 staff members. The system must be compatible with Laboratory Information Management Systems (LIMS) and include the latest available PC running 64-bit Windows or greater.
