Sole Source
- City of Rock Island requires City Council approval for any sole source purchase over $10,000. Use this path only if the product is uniquely proprietary or essential for service continuity. Work with a departmental champion (e.g., Public Works, Police) to draft the sole source justification for Council approval. If the product doesn’t meet this exclusivity bar, pivot to a cooperative purchase to avoid the city’s low $15,000 formal bidding threshold.
