Rowan County Information Technology Department wishes to enter into a sole-source agreement with Faronics Technologies for endpoint management. The FY23 amount is $5,880.
Rowan County Purchasing Policy requires sole-source purchases over $5,000 be approved by the Board of Commissioners. This agreement would be approved as a 'sole-source' using standardization or compatibility as the overriding consideration per NCGS 143-129(e)(6) which allows for an exception to the bidding laws when:
1. Performance or price competition for a product are not available;
2. A needed product is available from only one source of supply; or
3. Standardization or compatibility is the overriding consideration
Attached is the quote from Faronics Technologies.
Board of Commissioners to authorize the County Manager to enter into a sole-source agreement with Faronics Technologies not to exceed $5,880.
