Ask HN: Sole source document?
Hi All
Anyone ever dealt with something called a "sole source" document ? Basically a university to whom we could be a vendor (for software) requires this so that they can show we are the only one that they could select based on unique offerings. This way, they don't need to bid.
Any suggestions are welcome.
- jeffmould 11y agoI have seen a couple a while back, but from my experience they were an internal purchasing department form that was completed by the purchaser not the vendor. Basically the purchasing department wanted justification as to why a product was not put out to bid. I can't imagine why they would request you to do it yourself, as that is kind of backwards to me.
