C. 20548 2239 DATE: March 23, 1981 MATTER OF: General Services Administration-- request for advance decision K DIGEST: Where invitation for bids--restricted to total labor surplus area set-aside concerns--(l) contemplates multiple awards for items and subitems to be shipped to certain destinations, and (2) discloses specific award selec- tion method by groups of required items and subitems, apparent low bidder on 23 subitems is entitled to consideration for award on all sub- items because it agreed to perform more than 50 percent of contract or award price in labor surplus area. The General Services Administration, rederal Supply Service (GSA), requests our decision on the propriety of an award to the Davis Walker Corpora- tion under invitation for bids (IFB) No. 8FCB-B3- 80087 for fence stays, fencing, woven wire, and other wire. The procurement was a total labor surplus area set-aside. The IFB announced that bids were solicited from concerns that would agree to perform substantially in labor surplus areas, meaning that the costs incurred on account of manufacturing, production, or appropriate services in labor surplus areas exceed 50 percent of the contract price. The IFE called for prices on 15 items; where delivery of an item to more than one destination was required, the IFB called for subitem prices corresponding to certain destinations. The IFB also divided the 15 items into 5 groups and the IFB disclosed how award would be made in each group.
