Security Assistance Forces and Equipment Inter- national, Inc. (SAFE) requests reconsideration of our decision, Security Assistance Forces and Eauipment International, Inc., B-195196; 195196.2, July 10, 1980, 80-2 CPD 24. In that decision we denied SAFE's protest that the solicitation for technical services for a European facility improperly provided that logistic support would not be provided to contractor personnel and that its proposal was improperly rejected. We held that the Army's omission of logistic support was justified since the contracting officer determined that adequate competition existed from firms located within the Federal Republic Qf Germany so that the Army was not required to incur expenses incident to providing logistic support. SAFE contends that our Office misunderstands the basic concepts of logistic support in that it is not given to contractors but offered in exchange for lower prices offered by the contractor. SAFE further alleges that there was no evidence to justify precluding logistic support under the contract. 05 q F
