BNO - AirstaFlow B4N Safety Badges

The Idaho Department of Health and Welfare has requested a brand name exemption for the purchase of AirstaFlow B4n safety badges. If approved, a brand name exemption allows an agency to specify one brand name only in a procurement and to eliminate bids for any alternate or substitute property. Brand name exemptions are at the discretion of the DOP Administrator. In the interest of transparency, DOP is offering suppliers the opportunity to review this requested exemption and provide relevant information. The decision remains discretionary, and suppliers have no right to appeal the Administrator’s decision. Suppliers are invited to provide information that may help the DOP Administrator make a decision regarding this brand name exemption. Please review the Agency’s request, attached in the Buyer Attachment section of IPRO. You are invited to provide information that may help support or contradict the claim that the named brand is the only brand that can meet the agency’s business needs. Submit your information by attaching it in the Supplier Attachments section of IPRO and submitting your response or emailing contact@example.gov. To be considered by the Administrator, all information must be submitted prior to the closing date and time listed in IPRO.
