Requirement

– 2x Field Deployable Computed Tomography (CT) scanner. High-fidelity full-body scanner with no lower than 64-slice capability and fitted with appropriate power interface ports. Robust enough scanner to be taken off-road to be deployed on Operations, or sufficiently damped to enable traversing rough terrain. Head to pelvis scanning in one pass will be a minimum requirement. Please provide details of dosage and time required to complete a full body scan. If this is not possible in one pass, indicate dosage and time to complete full body.

– Surrounding Infrastructure (Container/Shelter) – CT scanner will need to be fitted within either a self-deploying capability or transportable container by existing fleet which permits deployment of a 20′ ISO (International Standards Organisation) shipping container. Container/shelter solution could be an entirely solid shell or a combination of solid walls and an expanding shelter in place of a solid roof. The capability will require a rigid floor/baseplate that is self-levelling to permit use in the field and a shielded clinical area will be required for the radiographers. Suitable space to permit full-body scanning in one pass is desirable; head to pelvis scanning in one pass as a minimum.

– Training – Initial user and maintainer courses.

– Through Life Support for the full capability for a minimum of 10 years. This is to include training, spares, servicing, maintenance and Ongoing original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) post-design services
