Need help in fixing the EL expression to handle customer names that include '&'.

We have a custom field on the Order Management → Create Order screen that retrieves customer information from a BIP report using EL expressions, based on the customer name.

However, some customer names contain the '&' character, and this is preventing the EL expression from retrieving their information.

We need help fixing the EL expression so it can handle customer names that include '&'.
