Highlights

A firm protested a proposed Army contract award for the replacement of bowling lane beds and approaches, contending that the proposed awardee would be unable to comply with the solicitation specifications. GAO held that: (1) the protester failed to show that the proposed awardee was nonresponsible; (2) it would not review the Army's responsibility determination absent proof that the contracting officer acted in bad faith; and (3) whether the awardee actually complied with the specifications was a matter of contract administration, which it would not consider. Accordingly, the protest was dismissed.
