Quick Decision Flow
- Sole Source: If sale is less than $20,000, sole source is permitted in theory but not practical—skip and use cooperatives.
- Coops: Frequently procures through OMNIA Partners and Sourcewell; you can gain access through the Starbridge reseller & contract-vehicle platform — reach out to your Starbridge contact to pursue onboarding.
Registered vendors: NYC's Vendor Enrollment Center processes W-9 and PIP registration in 3-5 business days for prime bidders.
MOCS threshold triggers a formal RFx workflow — plan for 60-90 days from solicitation to award depending on category.
Sole Source
- Albany County, NY permits sole sourcing in theory, but there’s no evidence of awards and it isn’t efficient in practice. The county’s very low $20,000 competitive bidding threshold triggers formal processes, reinforcing that sole source is not the preferred path. Practical approach: skip sole source and use cooperatives.
Registered vendors: NYC's Vendor Enrollment Center processes W-9 and PIP registration in 3-5 business days for prime bidders.
