Northeastern Illinois University is accepting bids for a laser scanner that will be used to create three-dimensional virtual models of archaeological or fossil specimens. These models can then be manipulated using a variety of computer programs (e.g., Geomagic Studio, Landmark Editor) to take measurements such as surface areas, volumes, and linear distance. The Anthropology Department desires to acquire a laser scanner for the purposes of studying very small (< 1 mm) primate dentition as well as other fossil and archaeological specimens.

The University reserves the right to accept or reject any and all responses or parts thereof. Vendor may expect payment thirty to sixty days after receipt of invoice, unless otherwise stated in the bid documents. Illinois Department of Human Rights (IDHR) eligibility number is required on all proposals, if applicable. This procurement may be contingent on Board of Trustees approval. Solicitation documents may be obtained by contacting the Purchasing Office.
