The requirement covers three brand-name-only line items: one Bobcat 90-inch mower attachment for S76 skidsteer, one Bobcat 84-inch angle broom attachment for S76 skidsteer, and one Bobcat 84-inch angle broom attachment for S260 skidsteer.

Quoters must submit a completed IEE Representation Form and DIAR 1452.280-4 certification with their quote or face disqualification.
