Effect on Award of Increased Funding Availability

The protester objected to a contract award, contending that the award should have been limited to the amount determined to be available when the initial schedule was approved for award. The bid schedule consisted of five bid items which were assembled into five separate schedules, and the "basis of award" clause had indicated that only that schedule would be awarded which would be in the best interest of the Government. If the available funding increased prior to award, funds could properly be reallocated, even if the reallocation affected the determination of the schedule under which the award was to be made.
