A sole brand procurement is prohibited except in the following
instances:
a. The sole brand
product is unique and essential to the CSU’s requirements,
thereby precluding consideration of a product
manufactured by another
company, or
b. The sole brand product is required to match other similar
product already in
place and the use of an alternate product would cause the CSU to
incur
substantial additional costs.
c. The sole brand product is
required for the immediate preservation of the public
health, welfare, or safety, or the protection of
CSU property and programs.
d. The determination as to
whether a procurement has been adequately justified in
writing for a sole brand award shall be made by
the designated campus
authority.
