Purchasing management of scientific research instruments, instruments and reagents in my country needs to be improved

With the development of science and technology, the demand for scientific research instruments and reagents is increasing. According to the survey, there are many laboratories with very little equipment and equipment, especially in universities in the central and western regions. The data of cutting-edge scientific research projects can only be taken outside for testing. University laboratories are not equipped with large-scale instruments for testing, let alone scientific research reagents. Purchase, the lack of scientific research instruments is one of the important reasons restricting their development. This year's government work report proposes to fully respect and trust scientific researchers, and give innovation teams and leading talents greater control over human and financial resources and decision-making powers on technical routes. Lu Youming, member of the National Committee of the Chinese People's Political Consultative Conference, dean of the School of Basic Medicine of Huazhong University of Science and Technology, and vice president of Tongji Medical College, believes that my country's R&D investment scale is second only to that of the United States, and the R&D investment intensity reaches 2.12%, but the level of scientific research management, especially scientific research There are still many shortcomings in the purchasing system of instruments and reagents, which need to be filled urgently. Member Lu Youming pointed out that there are still many deficiencies in the procurement of scientific research instruments and reagents in my country: First, the management authority of scientific research funds is decentralized. The funding channels used by colleges and universities to purchase scientific research instruments and equipment mainly include school self-raised funds, national special projects, and various funds. Project funds from different sources are managed and allocated by different departments, and schools cannot make overall plans, making it more difficult to make scientific and reasonable procurement plans. Second, the allocation period of funds is long, and the time limit for use is short. So far, a total of 56 scientific research instruments and equipment projects in mainland Chinese universities have won bids, with a cumulative amount of 198.83 million yuan. Among them, the major purchasers are mainly double-first-class universities in Hebei, Anhui, and Shandong, and only one university in Hebei University. It reached the purchase amount of 26.18 million yuan. So far, the accumulative amount of winning bids for scientific research instrument projects in double-first-class universities has reached more than 700 million yuan, and more than 250 projects have won bids. These large-scale purchases of scientific research instruments are mainly due to the introduction of corresponding policies and supporting measures in various provinces to support the talent training, equipment purchase and infrastructure transformation of colleges and universities. Judging from the annual procurement list of scientific research instruments for scientific research units in colleges and universities, spectrometers, microscopes, centrifuges, PCR instruments, and incubators rank the top 5 in the procurement demand list of colleges and universities; among them, biological microscopes, laser scanning confocal microscopes and other types of The demand for microscopes continues unabated; among various spectroscopic instruments such as Raman, Fourier transform infrared, atomic fluorescence, etc., the purchasing demand for UV-visible spectrophotometers is far ahead. Small. The annual scientific research funding is allocated in September every year, and must be completed in December of the same year. The user unit cannot complete the procurement work of complex procedures such as formulating a procurement plan, preparing a procurement budget, purchasing demonstration, compiling a technical bid, bidding procurement, and signing a contract. At the same time, relevant departments are required to report every year a list of scientific research instruments purchased over 2 million yuan in the next year. This can easily lead to the inability to purchase the urgently needed scientific research instruments. The backward management system has resulted in serious waste such as the unavailability of money, the unavailability of equipment and the unusable scientific research funds. Third, the procurement time of imported scientific research reagents is long, the quality is low, and the price is high. At present, more than 85% of the scientific research reagents used in colleges and universities and scientific research institutes rely on imports. The imported scientific research reagents purchased are mainly from nearly 480 reagent companies of different sizes across the country. The procurement time period is too long, generally more than 45 days. General scientific research reagents need to be used within one week, which cannot meet the needs of scientific research. Many intermediary companies lack the transportation capacity of reagents for scientific research, which leads to the damage of reagents during transportation. At the same time, the average price of imported reagents is at least double the export price of foreign manufacturers, which is a serious waste of scientific research funds. In order to improve the procurement and management of scientific research instruments and reagents, member Lu Youming put forward suggestions. The first is overall management and establishment of an internal control system. The financial department and the education department coordinate the overall management of the use of scientific research funds, optimize the allocation of resources, and improve the efficiency of fund use. The administrative department establishes a sense of service and establishes an internal control system, such as“one-time notification”“time-limited”. The second is to extend the time limit for the use of funds. Relevant departments should cancel the management system of reporting each year the list of scientific research instruments purchased over 2 million yuan in the next year. The budget preparation has been completed in the early stage, and the ongoing procurement work should reserve the amount of financial funds and extend the time limit for use to ensure that the purchased equipment can be paid normally. Third, for the import of scientific research reagents by colleges and universities, policies such as accelerated customs clearance and tax reduction and exemption may be considered.
