C. 2054 8 FILE: B-201202 DATE: January 23, 1981 MATTER OF: The Little Susitna Company DIGEST: Protest filed with GAO more than ten days after receipt of initial adverse agency action is untimely under our Bid Protest Procedures and not for consideration on merits. The Little Susitna Company (Little Susitna) pro- tests the award by the Navy of a contract for architec- tural and engineering (A-E) services under request for proposals (RFP) No. N62472-80-C-9384. The contract is for the preparation of A-E plans and specifications for repairs to a number of housing units at the Naval Sta- tion, Adak, Alaska. Little Susitna alleges, in substance, that it is qualified to perform the work in question, that it is a minority-owned firm, and that the Navy failed to con- sider all of the selection criteria which appeared in the notice of the procurement published in the April 18, 1980, edition of the Commerce Business Daily (CBD). However, the protest is not for consideration on the merits since, as indicated below, it was not timely filed with our Office. Because the contract in question was for A-E services in connection with a construction contract, the Navy utilized Brooks Bill procedures, 40 U.S.C. §§ 541- 544 (1976), as prescribed in Defense Acquisition Regu- lation §§ 18.-401, 402 (1976 ed.). Of the 22 firms which responded to the CBD announcement, six, including Little Susitna, were selected by a preselection board for fur- ther review. A selection board interviewed the six firms and recommended three firms for approval for contract negotiations, which list did not include Little Susitna. By letter dated August 22, 1980, the Navy advised Little Susitna that it had not been selected for the project and that negotiations were being conducted with Seifert and Forbes, P.S.
