Advanced Research Grade Live-Cell Imaging and Analysis System

The National Research Council of Canada is seeking to procure a single Advanced Research Grade Live-Cell Imaging and Analysis System to support the Cell Technology Facility, emphasizing the need for a fully integrated instrument capable of automated acquisition, pre-defined assay execution, and hardware-based sample processing to deliver consistent, reproducible, and efficient results with enhanced experimental capabilities. The system is critical to advancing research in cellular dynamics and requires state-of-the-art functionality to maintain the facility’s scientific standards and enable cutting-edge investigations. The solicitation, identified by number 26-58064, was posted on June 18, 2026, with responses due by July 4, 2026, and is open to federal contractors without set-aside restrictions. The equipment will be delivered and deployed within the National Capital Region, and all inquiries should be directed to Marie Josée Lachance, the Contracting Authority, via email or phone. The procurement is part of the Government of Canada’s efforts to modernize research infrastructure and ensure long-term scientific capability at its premier laboratory facilities.
