The University of Mississippi Medical Center is certifying sole source for procurement of a Noraxon Portable Movement Analysis System under RFx# 3150006992, with objections due October 2, 2026 at 3:00 p.m. Central Time. This is a sole-source procurement with no competitive bidding; Noraxon is the exclusive manufacturer and developer of the specified system.

The scope is an all-in-one portable biomechanics laboratory system built on a modular platform that integrates wireless surface electromyography (EMG), wireless inertial measurement unit (IMU) technology, and high-speed video camera technology into a portable hard case. The system captures synchronized measurement, display, and processing of EMG, 3D kinematic, 2D video, 3D/2D kinetic, and other analog data signals for human movement research. UMMC's justification for sole-source certification rests on Noraxon's exclusive development and distribution of this particular portable biomechanics system and its incompatible proprietary technology, stating no other provider can meet UMMC's specific research requirements. UMMC has conducted market intelligence comparisons and pursued applicable discounts.

The estimated total expenditure is $84,963.50. The Notice of Award or No Award will be posted no earlier than October 9, 2026. Objections must be submitted via email to solesource@umc.edu using the required Vendor Form with the certification statement in Attachment B and all required information; responses received after the deadline or lacking complete information will be rejected. Contact John Shows at 601-815-2034 or solesource@umc.edu for additional information. UMMC is located at 2500 North State Street, Jackson, Mississippi.
