COMPATIBLE EQUIVALENT. Whenever an item is specified in this Contract by trade name of an OEM, the term “compatible equivalent,” if not inserted therewith, shall be implied. Any reference to a particular OEM’s product either by trade name or by limited description is solely for the purpose of more clearly indicating the minimum standard of quality desired, except where a 'no substitute' or ‘no substitution(s)’ is requested. When a 'no substitute' or ‘no substitution(s)’ is requested, Procurement Services will consider bids for the referenced Product only. The term “compatible equivalent,” is defined as meaning any other Product which, in the sole opinion of Procurement Services, is equal in performance, quality and design in such a way that the Product is directly interchangeable with the referenced Product without modification.
