Van Lines, Inc. DIGEST: Where determinations and finding indicate that tire was of the essence we will not question Department of the Air Force determination to negotiate a contract pursuant to 10 U.S.C. 2304(a)(2), which authorizes procurement by negotiation where the public exigency will not permit delay incident to advertising. R. C. Vau Lines, Inc. (R.C.), protests the award by the Department of the Air Force of contract No. F236087790193 to United Van Lines, Inc. (United), for the tronsportation of office furniture, equipment and supplies, estimated to weigh 1,400,000 pounds, from Richards-Gebaur Air Force Base, Mis- souzi, to Scott Air Force Base, Illinois. This Is the background of the protest. R. C. had on file at Richards-Gebaur its Rate Tender ICC #150, Supplement #2 (Tender 150), issued in November 1976. Tender 150 is a continuing offer to the Governmint to transport at stated truckload rates and minimum weights, shipments of radar and electronic equipment, office furniture and fixtures and other articles usually hauled by household goods carriers. It applies between points in most of the states and it provides additional charges for accsssorial services including waiting time, excessive distances, elevators, loading nnd unloading, ,extra drivers and hand-tL-hand signature service. We assume that other household goods cnrriers had similar tenders on file at Richardc-Gebaur which were used Jn meeting the daily transportation needs of the base. R. C. states that under its Tender 150 it had been chosen as low cost carrier and had been tendered several shipments which it transported with complete satisfaction.
