Sole Source: If sale is less than $17,500 (or $53,000 with a QPA effective July 1, 2025), use sole source.

Coops: Use OMNIA Partners or Sourcewell; confirm your product is on contract and that purchasing can piggyback.

Township of Deptford, NJ: Sole source is effectively not viable above the $17,500 competitive bidding threshold—immediately pivot to a cooperative purchasing pathway for non-bid buys. Expect high friction if attempting a sole source justification.

Note: Thresholds are $17,500 without a Qualified Purchasing Agent (QPA); increasing to $53,000 with a QPA effective July 1, 2025.
