Highlights

The Secretary of the Army requested GAO's opinion regarding a letter from the Deputy General Counsel, Office of the Chief of Engineers, furnishing a report on the protest of the McCarty Corporation against the refusal of the procurement activity to grant its request to correct an alleged mistake in bid, and against the award to another bidder under a solicitation issued by the Fort Worth District Corps of Engineers.

GAO concluded that termination of the contract would not be in the best interest of the Government.
