    It is reported that scientific research facilities and instruments are the basic guarantee to promote technological innovation and advance scientific and technological progress.
    Major universities and research institutes will have an increasing demand for scientific research instruments and equipment, especially large-scale instruments and equipment.
    The purchase of a single scientific research instrument and equipment can cost hundreds of thousands or millions of yuan, but the frequency of use is uneven.
    There is a huge contrast between the huge equipment investment and maintenance expenditure and the actual use efficiency.

     

    In addition, in the field of maintenance and repair of large-scale scientific research equipment, there has always been a problem of serious monopoly in sales and after-sales service by some instrument suppliers.
    Last year, the Nuclear Magnetic Resonance Center of Peking University announced a statement to dozens of nuclear magnetic users and instrument suppliers across the country.
    Service fees and the prices of spare parts, and it is not only Peking University that has been treated like this.
    Faced with such a monopoly problem that is endless, but difficult to shake in a short time, what can be done? How to break the monopoly in the maintenance and repair of scientific research equipment
     

    Industry experts suggest that we should conduct anti-exclusive investigations on some of the instrument suppliers who have a bad impact on the scientific research equipment career and suspected of abusing the allocated locations in the market.
    Relevant laws and regulations should also be improved, and legislation on anti-monopoly of scientific research equipment and purchasers' maintenance legislation should be strengthened.
    A very important point is to establish an open system for repairing scientific research equipment and equipment, allowing and encouraging third-party companies to enter the repairing market.

     

      Instrument suppliers should disclose repair information to third parties and open parts sales; suppliers should be prohibited from setting exclusive clauses in supply contracts or maintenance contracts.
    For scientific research equipment, which has a narrow application scope and highly professional products, it is recommended that a special price negotiation group be formed by major purchasers in the same category.
    The team can negotiate with suppliers with allocated locations in shopping malls in accordance with fair and reasonable criteria to determine reasonable repair and maintenance price standards.
