Highlights
A firm protested the proposed award of a contract by the General Services Administration (GSA) to another firm, contending that GSA misinterpreted the solicitation specifications concerning the basis for contract award. GAO rendered its decision pursuant to a request from a court of competent jurisdiction that was hearing a suit filed by the protester. GAO held that: (1) the protester ignored certain specifications regarding bid options in its interpretation of the solicitation; and (2) GSA correctly interpreted the solicitation and properly determined the low bidder. Accordingly, the protest was denied.
