Although the IDOE states that the below vendors meet the evidentiary thresholds of School Improvement under ESSA, providing this list does not remove the LEA’s responsibility from following local, state, and federal procurement procedures. Specifically, when the LEA wishes to contract with a vendor for services, if the total contract is over the local, state, or federal thresholds, then bids must be solicited from multiple vendors to garner appropriate quality and cost along with other procedures.

For local, see approved board policy.
For state, see IC 5-22.
For federal, see 200.317 to 200.325 of EDGAR.
