A best practice is to evaluate the negotiated price to ensure that one fund is not benefiting from another. 9.3 PURCHASE OF USED VEHICLES, EQUIPMENT, AND FURNISHINGS The Procurement Manager may determine on a case-by-case basis the method(s) of purchasing used motor vehicles, equipment or furnishings. Such methods may include, for example, purchase from auctions, dealers or public agencies. Prior to purchasing, an analysis will be completed which documents that the purchase price is considered fair and reasonable and is in the best interest of the City. The Washington State definition of"used equipment" does not include equipment already in its possession through leasing or renting. The purchase of items from auctions is governed by RCW 39.30.045. 9.4 SOLE SOURCE Sole source procurements are governed by RCW 39.04.280(1)(a). Sole source procurements may be made directly from a sole source supplier without soliciting additional competition if there is clearly and legitimately only one source capable of supplying the commodity that result in only one source. In the event the commodity is available from only one supplier, a Sole Source Justification Form must be completed and provided to the Procurement Manager. Page 41 of 57
