Sole Source Project Process.pdf

The document outlines the process for justifying and obtaining approval for a sole source procurement. It involves working with Central Services to develop a Sole Source package, including a unique project number, a Notice of Intent to Sole Source document, and a Scope of Services defining the item to be sourced. The requester must complete a Non-Competitively Bid (Sole Source) Form with detailed information and secure a letter from the manufacturer supporting the sole source necessity. The complete package is then posted on CENTRALITY for seven days for potential alternative solutions. If no responses are received, the sole source purchase is justified to move forward. Additional steps may be required if Council Approval is needed for the purchase.
