Please note: This is a Sole Source Notification. Specifications include, but are not limited to: The Idaho Department of Administration has requested a brand name exemption for the purchase of Irrigation Control System for the Capitol Mall - Baseline. If approved, a brand name exemption allows an agency to specify one brand name only in a procurement and to eliminate bids for any alternate or substitute property. Brand name exemptions are at the discretion of the DOP Administrator. In the interest of transparency, DOP is offering suppliers the opportunity to review this requested exemption and provide relevant information. The decision remains discretionary, and suppliers have no right to appeal the Administrator’s decision. Last year we purchased, through purchasing, half of the capitol mall new irrigation controls system, called baseline. This next fiscal year we'd like to purchase the second half of that system, and it needs to be a brand exact match to the first half for continuity and connectivity in order to complete the installation and integration of our grounds irrigation systems.
