Sole Source/Single Source Purchase Orders

 

Sole Source/Single Source Purchase Orders

When an item or service is available from only one source, or the item or service is specific to an existing configuration, and the dollar value exceeds $2500, an order may be placed without competitive bids if appropriate written justification is provided. Purchasing must verify that the purchase is Sole/Single Source and obtain approval from the Vice President for Administration before an order can be issued to the supplier. Contact Purchasing for assistance in these instances.
