       The Honorable Donald J. Mitchell

       House of Representatives

       Dear Mr. Mitchell:

            Reference is made to your letter of March 13,
       1980, concerning the protest of Grandoe Corporation9
       under solicitations Nos. DLA 100-80-R-0122 and -0123
       issued by the Defense Logistics Agency. We had
       previously closed our files on this protest because
       Grandoe Corporation did not respond to our request
       for its comments on the Defense Logistics Agency
       report on this matter. You now request that we
       reopen our files and consider Grandoe's protest on
       the merits because Grandoe is still interested in
       our resolution of the protest. You explain that
       Grandoe did not comment on the Defense Logistics
       Agency report because this was Grandoe's first bid
       protest and, therefore, Grandoe was confused by our
       Bid Protest Procedures.

            Our records show that by letter dated January 30,
       1980, we advised Grandoe of our understanding that thef;
       Defense Logistics Agency had furnished Grandoe with a
       pyoepert---t~- hroest, and we informed Grandoe
       that if Grandoe wished us to consider the matter, Grandoe
       was required to submit within 10 working days after
       receipt of our letter either (1) its written comments
       on the report or (2) a written statement that we should
       consider the protest on the basis of the existing record.
       Otherwise, we stated that our file would be closed without
       further action.

            In order to provide a reasonable time for
       correspondence to be delivered, in addition to the
       10-day period specified, we held the file open for
       1 month from the mailing of our letter. On March 4,
       1980, having received no reply from Grandoe, we closed
       our file in the matter.
