About this file
This Sole Source Justification Application is submitted by City Colleges of Chicago (CCC), specifically Harry S Truman College, for the procurement of an Anatomage Table Convertible from Anatomage Inc. The Biotechnology Program requests this state-of-the-art 3D virtual dissection table to enhance classroom instruction and integrate employability skills for students in Biotechnology and other CTE/STEM programs including Chemical Laboratory Technology. The equipment incorporates imaging of real human cadavers, 1,500+ real-patient cases, histology slides, prosections, and 309 animal CT/MRI datasets. The sole source justification cites Anatomage Inc.'s exclusive manufacturing and distribution of this patented technology (U.S. Patent No. 9,867,543 B2), with no compatible alternative products available from other vendors. The initial procurement value is $111,005, which includes the Anatomage Table Convertible ($79,500), shipping crate ($890), protective hardcover ($275), a 4-year extended warranty with software upgrades and technical support ($21,840), a 4-pack tablet bundle ($24,000), and a single teacher A&P license ($1,500), reduced by a $20,000 class bundle discount. The contract term runs from April 3, 2025, through June 30, 2025, with a history of prior purchases from Anatomage beginning in April 2025 valued at $99,945 for a 3D visualization table. CCC has indicated this is a new sole source procurement, with the purchase funded through educational or capital funds.
The application establishes that Anatomage Inc. is the sole source provider of this virtual dissection table technology domestically from its San Jose, California manufacturing facility. The vendor's support services encompass software content and functionality, hardware and software troubleshooting, and ongoing technical assistance. The justification indicates that no alternative supplies or services were evaluated, as the Anatomage Table Convertible cannot be procured from any other vendor due to its proprietary nature and patent protection. The application notes that future obligations may exist for maintenance, licensing, and continuing software needs, with the science software license renewable annually upon request. The stated rationale for the sole source approval is that the Biotechnology program at Harry S Truman College requires this specialized training equipment to support projected enrollment increases in fall 2026, and without this approval, a competitive solicitation would delay necessary program support. The quote, prepared by Anatomage on October 20, 2026, expires on December 31, 2026, and is valid only in USD, with pricing excluding taxes and duties associated with importation.
