About this file

This document is a Sole Source Justification Form from the Parkrose School District in Oregon. The district is seeking to purchase a technology asset tracking module from Follett School Solutions to integrate with their existing Follett library system. The justification indicates this is a sole source purchase as the module is specifically designed to work with the Follett system the district already utilizes, and there are no other compatible external modules available. The total cost of the 5-year contract is $55,000.

The pricing details indicate this is a sole source procurement, as the district has determined Follett is the only provider capable of furnishing the required goods and services. The purchase will be funded through the district's IT department budget, though it is unclear if federal funds will be used. The justification cites the efficient use of the existing Follett system and the lack of alternative compatible modules as the primary reasons for the sole source determination.

This is a module to track technology assets (computers, projectors, doc cameras, etc) inside of our existing library check out system. lt uses the same the structures and format and equipment as our existing library system.

For the reason{s} below, this purchase cannot reasonably be competitively solicited:

fl ffre efficient use of existing goods or services requires our purchasing compatible goods or services, and there is a single provider for those goods and services. Describe:

!Ottrer findings. Describe other factors that support the conclusion that the goods or services are available from only one source:
