New Zealand - High Content Imaging System

The University of Auckland is seeking a vendor to provide a high content imaging system for automated imaging and analysis of fixed and live biological samples. The system must support cell cultures, spheroids, organoids, and three-dimensional matrices. The agency requires this system to facilitate core applications including phenotypic screening, drug discovery, pharmacological testing, cell biology, cancer research, and molecular medicine. The agency needs the system to integrate with secure information technology infrastructure, including a virtual machine and remote access to image databases and analysis software. This integration must enable users to analyze data without interrupting the acquisition process. The project covers offsite performance of the work to deliver these capabilities. Eligibility is restricted to onshore New Zealand organizations only. Bidders must submit all questions regarding this opportunity no later than June 8, 2026. The agency is looking for proposals to determine the budget and accepts digital submissions via email or online.
