Legal Justification
Specific product/service is required for technical reasons to meet existing infrastructure/system or for reasons of continuity. The Drug Discovery Unit within the School of Life Science currently has three Echo acoustic dispensing systems. Their robotic infrastructure and working practices have evolved around these systems. This new system is intended to replace Echo EX55-1203 as a primary instrument which is currently situated within the Access robotics system Access-1910. The Access robotic systems are also provided by Beckman Coulter and are specifically designed to work with their Echo dispensers in both a software integration and physical sense as the robotics sit within a Perspex enclosure. This new system differs from our current systems in purely a performance enhancement way; allowing continuity of our current protocols without the need to re-evaluate our working practices or have the requirement to purchase new robotic systems to allow continued automation of our work.
