If providing a brand other than Agilent, offerors must provide a description of the non-brand item which includes the required minimum Technical Requirements/Salient Characteristics listed in Attachment 1.

The government shall not be limited in its search for performance data. The offeror shall not submit performance data for this factor. When performance is evaluated, the outcome is either Acceptable or Unacceptable. Unacceptable performance will disqualify an offeror from award.
