4. Reason for authority cited. The contracting officer has determined the circumstances of the contract deem only one source reasonably available.

Brand Name – The particular brand name is essential to the requirement and market research indicates similar products do not meet or cannot be modified to meet agency needs. If the justification is to cover only the portion of the buy which is brand name, then it should so state; the approval level requirements will then only apply to that portion.
