Lapse in Appropriations

Please note that a lapse in appropriations has caused GAO to shut down its operations. Therefore, GAO will not be able to publish reports or otherwise update this website until GAO resumes operations. In addition, the vast majority of GAO personnel are not permitted to work. Consequently, calls or emails to agency personnel may not be returned until GAO resumes operations. For details on how the bid protest process will be handled during the shutdown, please see the legal decisions page. For information related to the GAO Personnel Appeals Board (PAB), please see the PAB webpage.

Highlights

A firm protested a Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) contract award, contending that the awardee was not a responsible bidder. GAO held that it would not review the affirmative responsibility determination, since the protester failed to provide evidence of fraud or bad faith or that HUD misapplied definitive responsibility criteria. Accordingly, the protest was dismissed.
