Other contract news
Reminder: File your sole source contracts as soon as possible!
If you have a sole source contract or amendment that requires filing, it’s a good idea to file it now! You must file before the end of the fiscal year (June 30) in order to start work July 1. Filing early can help you avoid last-minute delays and potential compliance issues.
While DES will do its best to complete all filings before the end of the fiscal year, please note that the policy requires at least 15 business days to process sole source filings. Any filings DES receives after June 6 cannot be reviewed by the June 30 fiscal year end. This means that contracts associated with those filings will not receive approval by June 30 and, if signed or carried out prior to DES approval, may be out of compliance with RCW 39.26.140.
