Guarasi for the protester. Joshua Kranzberg, Esq. U.S. Army Materiel Command, for the agency. Aldo A. Benejam, Esq., and Christine S. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Allegation that the agency improperly failed to publicize solicitation or award in the Commerce Business Daily (CBD) is denied where the record clearly shows that the acquisition was synopsized in the CBD Online (CBDNet) and in the printed version of the CBD on two separate occassions, including a notice announcing a change to the solicitation number; the notices advised that the solicitation and related documents could be downloaded from the agency's Internet home page; and the notices provided a link to that site, along with the contracting officer's e-mail address and telephone number, and the protester failed to fulfill its obligation to avail itself of every reasonable opportunity to obtain the solicitation. DECISION Wilcox Industries Corporation protests the award of a contract to Insight Technology, Inc. under request for proposals (RFP) No. DAAB07-01-R-N201 (N201), issued by the U.S. Army Communications-Electronic Command (CECOM) for AN/PAQ-4C aiming lights. Wilcox argues that CECOM improperly failed to publicize the solicitation or the award in the Commerce Business Daily (CBD). We deny the protest.
