When is the governing body required to obtain quotes for purchases?
If the cost of the goods or services is at least 15 percent of the bid threshold but less than the bid threshold ($2,625 up to $17,500), then you are required to obtain a minimum of two competitive price quotes, if practicable. The award of contract is given to the vendor whose quote is deemed most advantageous to the local contracting unit, price and other factors considered.
