Quick Decision Flow
- Sole Source: If sale is less than $175,000, deprioritize; only consider if truly unique and co-ops don’t fit; otherwise use a multi-quote direct negotiation.
- Coops: The city actively uses cooperative purchasing; frequently procures through Sourcewell and the State of MN CPV, and you can gain access through the Starbridge reseller & contract-vehicle platform — reach out to your Starbridge contact to pursue onboarding.
Registered vendors: NYC's Vendor Enrollment Center processes W-9 and PIP registration in 3-5 business days for prime bidders.
MOCS threshold triggers a formal RFx workflow — plan for 60-90 days from solicitation to award depending on category.
