Replacement of End-of-Life Ultrasound at Cooktown Renal Unit with Sonosite LX

About

Torres and Cape HHS awarded a contract to FUJIFILM Sonosite Australasia Pty Ltd for the supply of a Sonosite LX ultrasound system to replace the end-of-life unit at the Cooktown Renal facility under the Timely Investment Infrastructure Maintenance (TIIM) Program.

The procurement, valued at AUD 82,775 and conducted via a selective method, includes a five-year warranty on the system and transducers.

The Sonosite LX is already used across TCHHS for point-of-care ultrasound (POCUS) in emergency and retrieval presentations, and this purchase addresses the absence of a standing offer arrangement for ultrasounds.
