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 bid correction that the General Services Administration (GSA) allowed under a solicitation for janitorial services, contending that GSA improperly allowed the correction, since the awardee displaced it as low bidder. GAO held that GSA properly allowed the awardee to correct minor clerical and accounting errors. Accordingly, the protest was denied.
