          File:        B-409146

          Date:     January 8, 2014

          Matt Ward, Esq., Ward Washington Law Firm, for the protester.

          submitted its quotation after that time.
          DECISION

          The International Code Council (ICC), of Washington, DC, protests the rejection of
