COMSOL Multiphysics software – annual maintenance renewal

Mississippi State University’s Office of Procurement & Contracts is seeking a sole‑source renewal of its COMSOL Multiphysics software license for an additional year. The university has identified COMSOL as the only vendor capable of providing the required academic‑discounted software, support, and updates. The renewal will sustain ongoing research activities at the university’s High‑Performance Computing Center and prevent disruption of current projects. • Commodity: COMSOL Multiphysics software annual maintenance (license, support, updates) • Estimated contract value: $14,642 (academic‑discounted price) • Vendor: COMSOL (sole source – no alternative U.S. academic resellers found) • Deadline for submission: June 16, 2026 08:00 am • Objection procedure: Interested parties may submit a written objection to Jennifer Mayfield, CPPO.
