Quick Decision Flow
- Sole Source: Avoid—DPS lacks clear sole source pathways; redirect requests into a cooperative contract.
- Coops: Frequently procures through Sourcewell or OMNIA Partners; you can gain access through the Starbridge reseller & contract-vehicle platform — reach out to your Starbridge contact to pursue onboarding. For software, secure written approvals from DoTS, Legal, and Purchasing; present your offer as pre-competed.
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.
Sole Source
- Denver Public Schools does not have publicly documented sole source contracts. Treat sole source as high-risk/low-transparency and steer purchases to a cooperative contract (e.g., frame your solution within a pre-competed coop to accelerate approval).
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.
Cooperatives
- DPS actively uses cooperative purchasing and prefers it to speed approvals. Confirm your item is on an eligible coop, coordinate piggyback validation with the Director of Financial Operations, and for software obtain written approvals from DoTS, Legal, and Purchasing; present the coop as a pre-vetted path. Reach out to your Starbridge contact through the Starbridge reseller & contract-vehicle platform to get onboarded to the recommended path.
