Supply of X-Ray Unit

National Museum of Ireland

The contracting authority has a requirement to replace an existing x-ray unit as it is no longer operational.
The current unit is both an instrument for recording, research and condition assessment within the museum and the NMI has also provided X-ray services for other agencies and cultural institutions such as the National Gallery, IMMA, Chester Beatty, and the Hugh Lane Gallery under the auspices of CNCI (Council of National Cultural Institutions). NMI also provides these X-ray facilities for private archaeological conservators as it is a legal stipulation that all excavated archaeological artefacts should be X-rayed prior to conservation.
The contracting authority is inviting tenders from economic operations to supply, install and maintain a new x-ray unit. The successful tenderer will also be required to decommission and dismantle the existing unit currently in-situ.
