Procurement guidance and navigation tips.
Lower scores indicate easier procurement processes. Created by Starbridge.
Sole Source: If sale is less than $18,500, use sole source.
Coops: Educate on coops (COSTARS, SHACOG, HGACBuy, OMNIA) for later; buyer hasn’t historically used coops but you can encourage them to explore these procurement programs as future options.
City of Duquesne (PA): No evidence of sole source contracting; deprioritize this path. Purchases over $18,500 require formal, advertised competitive bidding under the PA Third Class City Code.
