Lapse in Appropriations

Please note that a lapse in appropriations has caused GAO to shut down its operations. Therefore, GAO will not be able to publish reports or otherwise update this website until GAO resumes operations. In addition, the vast majority of GAO personnel are not permitted to work. Consequently, calls or emails to agency personnel may not be returned until GAO resumes operations. For details on how the bid protest process will be handled during the shutdown, please see the legal decisions page. For information related to the GAO Personnel Appeals Board (PAB), please see the PAB webpage.

Highlights

A firm requested reconsideration of its dismissed protest against an Air Force contract award for electrical power. GAO had held that the protester: (1) untimely filed its original protest; and (2) was not sufficiently interested to protest. In its request for reconsideration, the protester contended by reiterating its original contentions that: (1) the awardee was not responsible; and (2) GAO should consider its protest as a significant issue. GAO held that the: (1) original protest was untimely and did not constitute a significant issue; and (2) protester was not sufficiently interested to protest the award. Accordingly, the request for reconsideration was denied.
