Quick Decision Flow
- Sole Source: If sale is less than $15,000, use sole source. Not viable here—pivot to a cooperative purchase.
- Coops: Confirm your solution is on BuyBoard or another Alabama-approved cooperative and propose purchase via that contract; engage the Superintendent’s office to proceed.
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
- Dothan City School District, AL: Sole source is not a viable path. There is no public evidence or transparent process for sole source awards. Alabama’s low $15,000 competitive bid threshold forces most purchases into formal processes, making sole source unpredictable. Redirect effort to cooperative purchasing and position your solution as a pre-competed, easily accessible offering through a co-op for a documented, legally sound purchase.
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
