Highlights

A firm protested a Department of Energy subcontract award for paging services, contending that the prime contractor should have rejected the awardee's bid as technically unacceptable, since it did not meet the solicitation specifications. GAO held that: (1) it would not review the proposed implementation plan, since it was a matter of contract administration; (2) the awardee's bid met the solicitation's material requirements; and (3) the protester untimely filed its additional protests more than 10 days after it knew the basis of protest. Accordingly, the protest was dismissed in part and denied in part.
