Per University policy, any requisition totaling $25,000 or more that has not been competitively bid must be accompanied by a sole source/single source justification form. All sole source/single source transactions are subject to review and audit by internal audit, state examiners, and other governing agencies.

A sole source/single source justification cannot be based on price. A sole source/single source purchase must be established on the requestor’s investigation and evaluation of the requested product and its availability (or lack thereof) from multiple sources. The sole source/single source justification form must be completed and signed by the requestor and the appropriate financial manager. Signatures initialed by designees will not be accepted.
