The University awarded a contract for ICCN Co-Location services at Starlight to Northwestern University, Chicago, IL, for $31,200.

The University has determined that this purchase is only economically available from this source because the Northwestern University owns the co-location space where strategic research networks, like Internet2, have presence. In this location is where the University of Illinois connects to Internet2 and other research entities, which enables our research collaborations.
