3. The rationale or circumstances for limiting competition.
This is a Sole Source Justification. Western has standardized on the iTurret system used by dispatch and the outage coordinators to operate the electrical grid. This is a critical function to allow operators to have operational control and coordination of the power grid. Speakerbus is the sole manufacturer and servicer of these proprietary iTurret systems, therefore they are the only vendor to provide maintenance to this software.
