The protester objected to the award of a total small
business set-aside contract because the contracting agency
refused to allow the transfer of the low bid to a third party
(the protester). The agency acted reasonably under the
circumstances in refusing to allow the transfer of the bid to a
-hird party after the bids were opened. Since the protester was
not eligible for the award, Lt was unnecessary to resolve the
contention that the Small Business Administration violated its
own regulations and improperly prevented the protester from
filing an application for a Certificate of Competency. The
protest was denied. (Author/SC)
