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 protested the Army's rejection of its bid as technically unacceptable for a power saw, contending that the Army's failure to answer its questions precluded it from submitting a best and final offer. GAO held that the Army properly rejected the protester's bid, since its product did not conform to the specifications. Accordingly, the protest was denied.
