Procurement guidance and navigation tips.
Lower scores indicate easier procurement processes. Created by Starbridge.
Sole Source: Only if your solution is truly unique/compatible with existing systems; work with the City Manager’s office to document justification.
Coops: If your product is on a cooperative (e.g., Sourcewell or BuyBoard), ask to purchase via that vehicle. Engage the City Manager (Purchasing Agent) and the department head to route it.
City of Arcata (CA) rarely uses sole source. Use only if your product is verifiably the only one that can meet the need or is uniquely compatible with existing systems, per Municipal Code Section 2407(b). If this high bar is met, work directly with the City Manager’s office (Purchasing Agent) to document the justification.
