The protester alleged that the agency did not comply
with proper con+racting prccedcres and with the terms of the
request for profosals. The solicitation provided for fixed-price
hourly rates, and the agency's accepthnce of an offer based on a
fixed rate subject to escalation represented n change in the
ground rules cf the procurement which was unfair to other
offerors. The agency should amend the solicitation to indicate
clearly the Government's requirements and open negotiations so
that offers can be submitted on an equal basis. (Author/SC)
