Quick Decision Flow
- Sole Source: If your solution is truly proprietary or essential for public safety, ask Purchasing to initiate a sole source justification and route for Council approval.
- Coops: Frequently procures through Sourcewell, OMNIA Partners, and TIPS; you can gain access through the Starbridge reseller & contract-vehicle platform — reach out to your Starbridge contact to pursue onboarding.
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
- City of Tupelo, MS occasionally approves sole source for specialized needs. Position your product as proprietary or essential for public safety. Work with the Purchasing Department to draft the sole source justification citing Mississippi Code exceptions, and be prepared to present for City Council approval (the May 6, 2025 meeting provides precedent). If your product does not fit these narrow criteria, pivot immediately to a cooperative pathway.
