The University award process may be delayed as this award goes through a state approval process.

First published Friday, October 20, 2023
The University awarded a contract for a 3-year Agreement for Assurance Coverage.
This procurement entails acquiring a comprehensive service contract for the mass spectrometer, encompassing maintenance, repairs, and software updates.
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)) This particular mass spectrometer plays a pivotal role within the core, facilitating analytical services for UIC researchers' biosamples. The service contract guarantees swift and effective instrument repairs, thereby preventing significant delays in sample analysis and research projects for all users.
