DIGEST: DECISION WHETHER A CONTRACT SHOULD BE TERMINATED FOR DEFAULT IS A MATTER OF CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION, WHICH GAO DOES NOT REVIEW.
X-TYAL INTERNATIONAL CORP.:
X-TYAL INTERNATIONAL CORP. REQUESTS THAT WE INSTRUCT THE MARINE CORPS TO TERMINATE FOR DEFAULT A CONTRACT FOR COLLAPSIBLE WATER TANKS AWARDED TO MINDEN MILLS, INC. UNDER SOLICITATION M00027-82-B-0024. X TYAL CONTENDS THAT THE CONTRACTOR HAS FAILED TO MEET THE REQUIRED DELIVERY SCHEDULE.
WE WILL NOT CONSIDER THE MATTER. A CONTRACTOR'S COMPLIANCE WITH CONTRACT TERMS, AND THE DECISION WHETHER THE CONTRACT SHOULD BE TERMINATED FOR DEFAULT, ARE MATTERS OF CONTRACT ADMINISTRATION. AS SUCH, THEY ARE FOR CONSIDERATION BY THE PROCURING AGENCY, NOT OUR OFFICE. SEE SPRINGHILL PRINTING, B-206529, MARCH 15, 1982, 82-1 CPD 244.
THE MATTER IS DISMISSED.
