Highlights
A company protested against the sole-source award of a reprocurement contract. It was within GAO jurisdiction to decide if the award was made in accordance with applicable procedures, and the bidder on the original procurement was an interested party. The contracting officer acted reasonably in considering bids on the original procurement in order to meet urgent requirements for immediate reprocurement. A contention that certain services should have been reprocured separately lacked merit since single procurement resulted in better pricing.
