Procurement guidance and navigation tips.
Lower scores indicate easier procurement processes. Created by Starbridge.
Sole Source: If sale is less than $35,000 and there’s a unique, urgent need (e.g., expiring grant funds), pursue sole source; otherwise pivot back to a coop.
Coops: Lead with a Sourcewell or OMNIA Partners contract to streamline purchase and avoid formal bidding.
Decatur Public Schools District 61 (Illinois) uses sole source only in rare, unique cases such as expiring grant funds. Practical approach: Do not frame your offer as sole source—position it as pre-competed and budget-friendly via a state-compliant cooperative.
