City of Abbotsford

Sole Source: Not viable today; deprioritize. Instead, conduct early discovery with City Administrator Josh Soyk (j.soyk@ci.abbotsford.wi.us) and Public Works (715-223-3444 Ext 250) to understand needs and timelines.

Coops: Forward-looking: Ask if state cooperative contracts (VendorNet), Sourcewell, or OMNIA could be used in the future when permitted. Buyer hasn’t historically used coops/resellers, but you can encourage them to explore these procurement programs and these resellers as future options.

There is no evidence that the City of Abbotsford uses sole source purchasing or has a published sole source threshold. Deprioritize this path.

Action: Engage early with City Administrator Josh Soyk (j.soyk@ci.abbotsford.wi.us) and Public Works (715-223-3444 Ext 250) to learn needs and timelines and position your solution for future formal bids.
