Quick Decision Flow
- Sole Source: Do not pursue; there’s no evidence it’s used. If asked, pivot to their cooperative authority (Town Code Sec. 16-106).
- Coops: Frequently procures through NASPO ValuePoint, OMNIA Partners, and Sourcewell; you can gain access through the Starbridge reseller & contract-vehicle platform — reach out to your Starbridge contact to pursue onboarding. Ask if they will use Virginia-accessible coops (Commonwealth of Virginia statewide contracts via eVA). If coops aren’t accepted and the purchase is over $50,000, expect a formal competitive bid.
