GAO Digest

Joint Technology Solutions, Inc. (Joint Technology), of Manassas, Virginia, protests the exclusion of its quotation from phase II of the competition conducted under request for quotations (RFQ) No. 70T05018Q9NMED010, issued by the Department of Homeland Security, Transportation Security Administration (TSA), to establish a blanket purchase agreement (BPA) for program management support services. The protester argues that the agency's exclusion of its quotation was unreasonable because the solicitation did not specify the exact level of detail required in its price quotation and that the agency's evaluation was unreasonable.
