Summary of the contracting process

Bangor University purchased a digital anatomy table with variable-position functionality. The equipment supports anatomy teaching through three-dimensional visualisations of hard and soft tissues, with interactive tools to cut, slice and remove individual anatomical structures and simulate surgical cuts. This is a goods requirement within the medical equipment, pharmaceutical and personal-care-products category (CPV 33000000). The buyer is Prifysgol Bangor / Bangor University, based in Bangor, Wales. The equipment is to be delivered in the United Kingdom and supports the university’s teaching activities. The requirement concerns a specialist educational and medical-visualisation system rather than general laboratory furniture or standard clinical equipment.

The procurement is complete and was awarded through a direct below-threshold procedure without competition. One lot was completed. Anatomage Inc was awarded the contract on 15 July 2026, and the contract was signed on the same date. The active contract period runs from 15 July 2026 to 15 July 2026. The contract value is USD 100,005 gross. Evaluation was therefore conducted through the direct-award route rather than a competitive tender. The selected supplier is Anatomage Inc, a large company based in Santa Clara, United States. Bangor University is the buyer and the contract is for the digital anatomy table described above.

This procurement demonstrates demand from Bangor University for specialist digital anatomy teaching equipment, particularly a table combining variable positioning with interactive three-dimensional visualisation of anatomical structures. Suppliers would need a proven product that can display hard and soft tissues, support cutting, slicing and removal of structures, and simulate surgical procedures in an educational setting. Credibility for a future requirement would depend on demonstrating that the system is suitable for anatomy teaching, can provide the required interactive functionality, and can be supplied and supported for a UK university. Medical-education technology providers and specialist anatomical-visualisation manufacturers are the clearest potential competitors for this requirement.
