Gwinnett County is seeking an analyzer and recurring drug-testing supplies for its Accountability Court. - Buyer: Gwinnett County Board of Commissioners, Gwinnett County Financial Services Purchasing Division, for the Gwinnett County Accountability Court; the attachment identifies Blake Christopher. - Required OEM equipment: Thermo Scientific Mindray BA-800M automated chemistry analyzer, quantity 1. The County will not accept an equivalent. Specifications include throughput of 800 tests per hour and capacity for 300 sample tubes; the system must integrate with the State’s Five Points case management system. - Annual reagent schedule: Approximate quantities include amphetamine, benzodiazepine, cocaine, ETG, opiate, oxycodone, 6-acetylmorphine, and hydrocodone at 52,000 each; THC at 49,744; buprenorphine MCC at 24,992 and TSC at 31,560; ecstasy at 29,032; fentanyl at 40,928; kratom at 40,000; tramadol at 38,000; methamphetamine at 25,000; and Spice, AB-PINACA, UR-144MCC, and Propozyphene at 10,000 each.

Reagents must include calibrators and controls; the County orders approximate quantities as needed. - Other attachment-listed reagents: Soma, LSD, and methadone are each listed at 10,000 in one attachment. Attachment quantities conflict for several reagents; the line-item list preserves the differing quantities rather than treating them as a single agreed schedule. - Services and requirements: Include analyzer lease, delivery, installation, support and removal; implementation with the system operational within 14 calendar days of award; lab consumables, labor, integration and travel; and on-site training for up to four staff. Provide information and estimated pricing for confirmation-testing providers; the County estimates about 20 confirmations per month. - OEMs named: Thermo Scientific and Mindray.
