                           !       .THE COMPTROLLER GENERAL
              DECISION               OF THE UN-ITED      STATES
                                     WASHINGTON, OC. 20548
                              I)NrrF,


              FILE: B-200647              DATE:   October 19, 1981

              MATTER OF:   Motorola Communications & Electronics, Inc.


              OIGEST:


              1.   GAO will not consider allegation that
                   grantor agency's handling of protest
                   violated Attachment 0 of OMB Circular
                   A-102 because provisions of Attachment
                   O regarding grantor's consideration
                   of protests have no direct relationship
                   to validity of grantee's award decision.
                   In this instance GAO has before it posi-
                   tions of grantor, grantee and all inter-
                   ested parties and therefore can properly
                   consider whether grantor has ensured that
                   grantee's proposed award complies with
                   requirements made applicable by law,
                   regulation or grant terms.

              2.   Bid offering mobile radio which contained
                   some modules which could not be removed
                   without clipping or unsoldering was non-
                   responsive to solicitation provision
                   requiring all modules to be removable
                   without clipping or unsoldering.

              3.   Although nonresponsive bid must usually
                   be rejected, nonresponsive bid may be
-4                 accepted here where radio offered would
                   meet purchaser's actual needs and where
                   record shows that the other bids submitted
                   were unacceptable for different reasons
                   and it appears likely that bidders would
                   offer same radios on resolicitation.
