A Accountabity * Integrity * Reliability of the United States United States Government Accountability Office Washington, DC 20548 D .. Decision Matter of: Kuwait Leaders General Trading & Contracting Company File: B-401015.2 Date: May 21, 2009 Sam Z. Gdanski, Esq., Gdanski & Gdanski, LLP, for the protester. Capt. John J. Cho, Department of the Army, for the agency. Jacqueline Maeder, Esq., and John M. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Agency properly excluded protester from competition where, although firm's ineligibility may not have been clear from solicitation, agency had statutory authority to limit competition and executed determination and finding citing that authority, making it clear that it intended to limit competition in a manner that excluded protester; GAO will not recommend that agency undertake useless act of amending solicitation to make clear that protester is ineligible to compete. DECISION Kuwait Leaders General Trading and Contracting Co. (KLG) protests the determination by the Department of the Army, Joint Contracting Command- Iraq/Afghanistan, that KLG is ineligible to compete under request for proposals (RFP) No. W90U3Z-09-R-0003, for the temporary installation and maintenance of tents, generators, and other support equipment to house military personnel arriving for duty in Iraq. We deny the protest. The solicitation, issued February 17, 2009, sought proposals for extra tent housing and life-support equipment at Camp Bucca, Iraq, to support a military relief in place (RIP), where approximately 1,600 military personnel rotate into Iraq to replace units that have completed their military duties in Iraq. During an RIP, the incoming and outgoing personnel are simultaneously on the base, creating the need for the extra housing.
