WASHINGTON, D.C. 20548 FILE: B-193146 DATE: August 6, 1979 MATTER OF.The Perkin-Elmer Corporation DIGEST: 1. Ability of awardee to comply with technical requirements of solicitation is not review- able by GAO since it involves challenge to contracting officer's affirmative determina- tion of awardee's responsibility. 2. Whether item being furnished by awardee actually complies with contract specifica- tions is matter of contract administration which is responsibility of procuring activity, not GAO. The Perkin-Elmer Corpora ion (Perkin-Elmer) protests the contract award 'to Electronic Controls, Inc. (Electronic Controls), by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) under invitation for bids (IFB) No. DLA900-78-B-0979. The solicitation was for the r\ supply of linear precision variable resistors (potentiometers) for use by the Navy in shipboard weapons fire control systems. Perkin-Elmer contends that the potentiometers bid by Electronic Controls deviate substantially from the IFB requirements and, therefore, Electronic Controls was nonresponsive to the solicitation. Specifically, Perkin-Elmer asserts that Electronic Controls' potentiometers fail to meet the require- ments of Note 26 of BuOrd Drawing 2162815, Revision C, in the solicitation. Note 26 provided as follows: 9~L~qb1J7 /U /,T /iwv ci ('cT L /74 2L bdi9SJc)o tP e7. C 2CA & 7< J7
