OP THE UNITED STATEs ' WASHINGTON. 0.C. 20548 FILE: B-213621.2 DATE: January 12, 1984 MATTER OF: Empire Electric Company, Inc. DIGEST: A contractor's complaint concerning the allegedly improper administration of its contract is not a matter for review under GAO's Bid Protest Procedures, but instead should be pursued under the contract's disputes procedures. Empire Electric Company, Inc. requests an investi- gation of the administration of its contract No. N00189- 83-D-0459 with the Naval Supply Center, Norfolk, Virginia. Empire contends that the agency has failed to administer the contract properly. This Office will not review a contractor's protest that its contract is not being administered properly. Under our Bid Protest Procedures, 4 C.F.R. Part 21 (1983), we consider whether an award, or proposed award, of a contract complies with statutory, regulatory, and other legal requirements; we do not consider how contracting officers administer contracts that have been awarded. See Delta Elevator Service Corporation, B-208252, March 23, 1983, 83-1 CPD 299. The contractor's remedy is to pursue the matter under the contract's disputes procedures as provided by law. See 41 U.S.C. §9 601-613 (Supp. IV 1980). We dismiss the protest. Harry R. Van Cleve Acting General Counsel 7O.-7 g/
