Abstract: VAAR clause 852.211–73

the item offered is in fact, equal to the
brand name item. This evidence may be
in the form of descriptive literature or
material, such as cuts, illustrations,
drawings, or other information. While
submission of the information is
voluntary, failure to provide the
information may result in rejection of
the firm’s bid or offer if the Government
cannot otherwise determine that the
item offered is equal. The contracting
officer will use the information to
evaluate whether or not the item offered
meets the specification requirements.
An agency may not conduct or
sponsor, and a person is not required to
respond to a collection of information
unless it displays a currently valid OMB
