Highlights

The protester challenged any award to the low bidder on the grounds that the low bidder intended to use material not conforming to the fabrication specifications. The Government's minimum needs were overstated, and the proper method to determine savings would be resolicitation of the two preaward procurements to reflect the needs of the Government. Concerning the protests with regard to two awarded contracts, if any favorable action is contemplated on current or future requests for waivers, termination with a view toward resolicitation should be considered.
