The University awarded a contract for a merscope with training and installation.
This purchase is for a merscope for sponsored research. The purchase includes training and installation.
This purchase is exempt from the usual selection processes of the Procurement Code because the procurement expenditure is for performing sponsored research and other sponsored activities under grants and contracts funded by the sponsor or by sources other than State appropriations. (30 ILCS 500 / 1-13(b)(8)) There is no other instrument available in the marketplace which is comparable and this is needed for this sponsored funded research study.
