Town of Fairmount

Sole Source: If sale is less than $25,000, sole source may be possible but deprioritize; unlikely to be approved.

Coops: Lead with Sourcewell. Confirm your product is on a Sourcewell contract and route the purchase through it to avoid formal bidding.

Town of Fairmount, IN: No evidence of sole source awards (2023–2025). Deprioritize this path; attempts likely to fail and waste time.

Thresholds/approvals: Town Council approval is required at very low amounts (~$200). Competitive bidding is triggered at $25,000, making sole source hard to justify. Expect stringent documentation and Council action if attempted.
