DESCRIPTION OF SHA SERVICE REQUIREMENTS

The Saskatoon Health Authority is looking for the provision and installation (including removal of old equipment) of full field digital mammography units (to include tomosynthesis), compression paddles, training, optional biomedical technologist training, service, and parts.

The initial purchase will be for 5 full field digital mammography units:

Dr. FH Wigmore Regional Hospital (Moose Jaw)
Battlefords Union Hospital (North Battleford)
Cypress Regional Hospital (Swift Current)
Yorkton Regional Health Centre (Yorkton).
Saskatchewan Cancer Agency (University Heights location in Saskatoon)

The intent is to replace the existing mammography units in their current locations. Information of the existing Mammography Equipment is located in Appendix I: Existing Mammography Equipment including make, model, serial number, tube count, software level, software options and photos.

The units above are used for screening and diagnostic mammography. Future units will require stereotactic capability. Respondents will need to demonstrate they can provide stereotactic biopsy capability and provide pricing for this option.
