          DIGEST

          Protest of agency determination to limit the revisions offerors may make to their
          proposals during corrective action is denied where the corrective action was
          appropriate to remedy the concerns identified by the cognizant GAO attorney during
          an outcome prediction alternative dispute resolution conference, and agency
          permitted offerors to make changes required to address clarifications of solicitation
          requirements.
          DECISION

          Intermarkets Global (IMG), of Amman, Jordan, protests the corrective action taken
          by the Department of Defense, Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), in response to
          protests by KGL Food Services and IMG against DLA's award of a contract to
          Anham, FZCO,  of Dubai, United Arab Emirates, under request for proposals (RFP)
          No. SPM300-08-R-0061, for the supply of a full service food line to troops in Kuwait,
          Iraq and Jordan. IMG asserts that DLA has implemented its corrective action in an
          unreasonable manner.

          We deny the protest.

          The prime vendor contract was awarded to Anham on April 14, 2010. KGL and IMG
          thereupon protested the award in protests filed with our Office (on April 27 and
          April 26, respectively) within 5 days of receiving a requested and required debriefing.
