Comptroller General
of the United States
Washington, D.C. 20548


B-158766



January 31, 1996



The Honorable Newt Gingrich
Speaker of the House
  of Representatives

Dear Mr. Speaker:


This letter responds to the requirement of the Competition in Contracting Act of
1984 that the Comptroller General report to the Congress each instance in which a
federal agency did not fully implement a recommendation made by our Office in
connection with a bid protest decided the prior fiscal year. We are pleased to
report no such occurrence during fiscal year 1995.

During the fiscal year we received 2,334 protests and 195 requests for
reconsideration for a total of 2,529 cases. We closed 2,736 cases, including 2,528
protests and 208 requests for reconsideration. Enclosed for your information are
some statistics concerning suspensions of contract awards and performance as a
result of bid protests.

A copy of this report and the attached enclosure are being furnished to the House
Committee on Government Reform and Oversight. An identical report is being
furnished to the President of the Senate.

Sincerely yours,




Comptroller General
of the United States
