Sole Source
Unlock details
- Arkansas Tech University (ATU), AR rarely uses sole source. Purchases over $10,000 normally require competitive bids, so redirect to cooperative purchasing when possible. A sole source is viable only if the product has undeniable proprietary rights or is essential for performance compatibility with existing, critical university systems. If pursuing, work with the end-user to draft a detailed Sole Source justification letter on ATU letterhead to the Director of Procurement Services, proving that no responsible competition exists and that contracting otherwise is not in the best interest of the state.
Agency-specific vendor registration, compliance steps, and approval routing shape the purchasing timeline.
