Informality of Procurement Procedures Did Not Warrant Resolicitation

A company protested that it was improper for the agency to negotiate under the authority of 41 U.S.C. 252 and to solicit oral offers and requested resolicitation. Despite the informality of the procedures, competition for the Government's requirements was provided and achieved. Even if the manner in which the agency solicited offers was improper, there was no prejudice to the protester; the request for resolicitation was denied.
