Procurement guidance and navigation tips.
Lower scores indicate easier procurement processes. Created by Starbridge.
Sole Source: Avoid—rarely approved; only pursue with Superintendent’s written justification.
Coops: Lead with a cooperative (Region 10 ESC or Equalis). For IT, route through SHI or Carahsoft under a co-op.
Rapides Parish School District, LA allows sole source under Policy DJE with a written justification from the Superintendent. Public records show no approved sole source contracts (2022–2025), indicating this path is exceptionally rare/unused and likely to cause delays.
