The Canadian Grain Commission (CGC), Grain Research Laboratory (GRL) and Industry Services (IS) has requirements for the supply, delivery, installation and training of three (3) IL-710CGCR Dickey-john Instalab near-infrared (NIR) spectroscopy instruments. All the deliverables must be received on or before August 14, 2020. The CGC currently utilizes at least 10 DICKEY-john Instalab NIR instruments in both GRL and IS laboratories. The Dickey-john Instalab is used to measure quality constituents in grain. This purchase will support the Falling Number-DON Project taking place through the GRL Harvest Survey Program. The program will provide Falling Number values to producers from across Canada who submit wheat samples through the Harvest Survey Program. In the IS laboratories, the instrument is also used to support Falling Number testing as well as for chlorophyll determination in ground canola, both to meet operational service delivery under the CGC mandate. The calibrations on CGC existing Dickey-john Instalabs have been developed over 30 years. The new instruments will be compatible with the current CGC model (Instalab 600) to ensure that these calibrations and archived spectral data are transferable. The new instruments are required to allow CGC to continue to meet operational requirements and maintain high efficiencies and quality standards in our laboratories. Delivery Date: Above-mentioned The Crown retains the right to negotiate with suppliers on any procurement. Documents may be submitted in either official language of Canada.
