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 two Navy contract awards for chemicals, contending that the awardee's bid did not meet the solicitation specifications. GAO held that: (1) it would not review the protest, since it concerned a matter of contract administration; and (2) there was no basis to conclude that the awardee's bid was nonresponsive, since the awardee took no exception to the solicitation specifications. Accordingly, the protest was dismissed.
