POL - Non-Competitive-Acquisition 2002

  • YEAR CREATED: 2002
  • ENTITY TYPE: County
  • TYPE OF DOCUMENT: POL - Policies/Procedures
The document provides information on the procedures for non-competitive acquisitions in Miami-Dade County. The policy of the county is to purchase goods and services through an open and competitive process, but there are situations where competition is not available or it is determined to be in the best interest of the county to use other methods such as sole source or bid waiver. The document outlines the process for departments to follow when requesting a sole source or bid waiver, including submitting a justification document with information on the purpose of the purchase, specifications or statement of work, uniqueness of the vendor's item/service, and proof of exclusive rights or proprietary rights if applicable. The document also explains the process for determining whether a sole source or bid waiver is appropriate and the steps for negotiating and awarding contracts. Additionally, the document mentions emergency purchases, which are unforeseen urgent needs that can be awarded without using the competitive bid procedures. Contracts under $100,000 can be awarded by the County Manager or their designee, while contracts over that amount require approval from the Board of County Commissioners.
