Aegis Defense Services, LLC appealed against the government's refusal to sell light armored vehicles (LAVs) after contract performance, claiming a breach of contract regarding a right of first refusal. The Board ruled in favor of Aegis, finding the government had no valid defense for its actions.

Material Facts

  • The contract was a multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contract for security support services in Iraq.
  • Aegis was awarded Task Order No. 0002, which required the government to provide LAVs for use.
  • Aegis submitted proposals to purchase LAVs, which included a right of first refusal if the government had no further use for them.
  • The government ultimately decided to transfer the LAVs to the Government of Iraq instead of selling them to Aegis.
