           DIGEST

           Protest that agency placed order for construction services that were not on
           vendor's General Services Administration (GSA) Schedule 56 contract is denied,
           where GSA reasonably determined that the solicitation did not require construction
           services and all of the services purchased were on the vendor's or its subcontractors'
           schedule contracts.
           DECISION

           American Warehouse Systems (AWS), of Minneapolis, Minnesota, protests the
           issuance of an order to FedSource, Inc., of Union, Missouri, under the firm's General
           Services Administration (GSA) schedule contract by the GSA under request for
           quotations (RFQ) No. RFQ421147 for mezzanine installation. AWS contends that the
           order includes labor services that are not on FedSource's GSA schedule contract.

           We deny the protest.

           The RFQ required the selected vendor to furnish and install a storage system
           consisting of a free-standing mezzanine with bollards, fluorescent lighting, fire
           sprinkler system, storage racks, bin shelving, wire mesh partitions, modular wall
           units, work tables, personnel lockers, and storage cabinets at Langley Air Force
           Base, Virginia.' RFQ at 1. The mezzanine structure was to be a free-standing


           1 The RFQ recommended that lighting and sprinklers be installed by identified
           vendors. RFQ, Statement of Work, at 4-5.
