Additional Notes
A "Determination to Solicit from a Single Source" document justifies the brand-name requirement for SEL relays due to their unique characteristics, advanced features, and compatibility with the Grand Coulee Power Office's existing proprietary system, which is critical for primary and backup protection of industrial generators and NERC CIP compliance. Despite the single-source justification for the brand, the agency anticipates receiving competitive quotes for the specified brand-name products.
