Sole Source
Unlock details
- City of Provo (UT) provides no clear public evidence of approving sole source awards and shows high friction. Deprioritize this path. Practical notes: expect strict justification and approvals if attempted; formal competitive processes trigger at low dollar amounts (around $5,000), making sole source unlikely to be the fastest path. Move the discussion to a cooperative contract instead.
