Highlights
A firm requested review of the General Services Administration's (GSA) deduction of a portion of another firm's freight charges for a household-goods shipment, contending that the carrier properly billed GSA based on a combination of rates for distances beyond 50 miles. GAO held that GSA properly deducted the charges, since the tender clearly stated that only the higher rate was applicable. Accordingly, the deduction was sustained.
