          DIGEST

          Protest that the Small Business Administration (SBA) improperly accepted Army
          professional services requirement into its 8(a) program without first determining
          whether acceptance would adversely impact protester is denied where record
          supports SBA and Army determinations that services to be obtained under 8(a)
          program constituted a new requirement and, therefore, an adverse impact
          determination was unnecessary.

          Klett Consulting Group, Inc., of Virginia Beach, Virginia, protests the decision by the
          Department  of the Army, Mission and Installation Contracting Command, Army
          Reserve Contracting Center, and the Small Business Administration (SBA) to place a
          requirement for engineering support services under SBA's 8(a) business
          development program  through the award of a sole-source contract to Bara Infoware,
          Inc., of San Ramon, California.

          We  deny the protest.
