About this file

This document is a Brand Standard Approvals attachment for Facilities and Maintenance issued by the Benton School District (BSD) on September 25, 2025, establishing approved manufacturer specifications for various product categories used in district facilities and maintenance operations. The document provides a comprehensive list of brand-name products and materials approved under Oregon Revised Statutes 279C.345 and 279B.215, which permit brand specifications when justified by specific findings. The approved products span multiple categories including roofing and thermal envelope systems (Tremco), door and window hardware (Schlage, LCN, Von Duprin, Locknetics, Olympus Lock), paint and finishes (Armstrong acoustic ceiling tiles), food service equipment (Blodgett, Hatso, Hobart, Cres Cor, Red Goat), plumbing fixtures and equipment (Chicago Faucet, Watts, Rinnai, Bell & Gossett, Haws, Taco, VIEGA USA), HVAC equipment (Johnson Controls, Daikin, ABB, Danfoss, Viega, AAON, Belimo, Pelican, Victaulic), electrical and lighting (Cooper Lighting, Ephesus), communications and technology (Rauland, Primex, Hytera), electronic safety and security systems (Hanwha, The Boring Toolbox, Altronix, AiPhone, Dell, Safety Technology International), and exterior improvements (Rainbird).

Each approved manufacturer listing includes the specific product category or application and corresponding statutory findings (a, b, c, or d) that justify the brand restriction. Finding (a) relates to preventing favoritism and maintaining competition; finding (b) addresses substantial cost savings; finding (c) applies when only one manufacturer produces the required quality or functionality; and finding (d) covers situations where efficient utilization of existing equipment requires compatible goods or services. The majority of approved products are justified under findings (d) and (b), indicating that BSD's brand specifications primarily address compatibility with existing district infrastructure and cost efficiency rather than monopolistic sourcing practices. No specific pricing information, contract terms, or response deadlines are provided in this standards document, which serves as an approval framework for future procurement activities by the district.

BRAND NAME APPROVALS FOR FACILITES AND MAINTENANCE

ATTACHMENT A

ORS 279C.345 and ORS279B.215 state that a local contract review board may allow brand name requirements upon making any of the following findings:

(a) That use of a brand name specification is unlikely to encourage favoritism in the awarding of public contracts or substantially diminish competition for public contracts;

(b) That use of a brand name specification would result in substantial cost savings to the contracting agency;

(c) That there is only one manufacturer or seller of the product of the quality, performance or functionality required; or

(d) That efficient utilization of existing equipment or supplies requires the acquisition of compatible goods or services.
