                        THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL
DMOF THE UNITED STATES
                        WAS H IN GTO N, D.C.  20548


FILE: B-193479


DATE:  March 8, 1979


MATTER  OF:  Science Applications, Inc.


DIGEST:


1.   Where solicitation calls for submission
     of personnel resumes with bids for use
     in determining compliance with specified
     experience requirements, resumes pertain
     solely to bidder's responsibility and may
     be submitted after bid opening regardless
     of language in solicitation requiring
     submission of resumes for bid to be re-
     sponsive. Low bidder's failure to submit
     resumes with bid does not justify rejec-
     tion of bid for nonresponsiveness.


2.  Where solicitation requires that firm and
    its professional employees have specific
    minimum experience in areas related to
    performance, requirements are definitive
    criteria of responsibility and do not
    raise question o5f responsiveness. Failure
    of low bid on its face to comply with
    experience requirements does not justify
    rejection of bid for nonresponsiveness.
