CERTIFICATION
I am aware of the requirements for competitive bidding and the established criteria for justification for sole source/sole brand purchasing. As an approved department representative, I have gathered the required technical information and have made a concerted effort to review comparable/equal equipment. This effort is documented in this justification. I herby certify that this justification for sole source/sole brand procurement meets the criteria and would withstand an audit by the DHS OIG, or a vendor protest.
