Project Description: NOTICE OF INTENT TO AWARD A CONTRACT WITHOUT ENGAGING IN A STANDARD PROCUREMENT PROCESS
Section 63G-6a-802 of the Utah Procurement Code allows the Jordan School District Purchasing Department to award a contract for a procurement item without engaging in a standard procurement process if a written determination is made that: (a) there is only one source for the procurement item; (b) the award to a specific supplier, service provider, or contractor is a condition attached to a donation or grant that will fund the full cost of the procurement item; or (c) the procurement item is required for trial use or testing to evaluate its benefit to the procurement unit.
The Jordan School District Purchasing Department has developed this sole source request form to document the determination that a contract should be awarded to the specified vendor without engaging in a standard procurement process. This form is intended solely for comments on the proposed sole source procurement. It is not a solicitation for quotes, bids, or proposals.
To contest this sole source request before the public notice period closes, a person must submit the following by email to Jordan School District Purchasing: (a) the person’s name or company name; and (b) a detailed explanation of the challenge, including documentation that demonstrates the existence of other competing sources for the procurement item.
If you agree that this proposed purchase is a valid sole source, no action is required.
