This purchase is exempt from the usual selection processes of the Procurement Code because the procurement expenditure is for procurement expenditures for any ongoing software
license or maintenance agreement or competitively
solicited software purchase, when the software, license,
or maintenance agreement is available through only the
software creator or its manufacturer and not a reseller ( 30 ILCS 500/1-13 (b)(10)) The EPIC list price is 37% higher without using a host vendor, Pointcore. Additionally, Pointcore provides all technical support with no mark-up of software maintenance fee or technical staff support fee.
