File: B-410406; B-410406.2 Date: December 24, 2014 William Weisberg, Esq., Law Offices of William Weisberg, PLLC, for the protester. Richard Ferguson, Esq., Defense Logistics Agency, for the agency. Peter D. Verchinski, Esq., and Nora K. Adkins, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protester's contention that it was competitively prejudiced in a procurement for passenger-side windows by the release of its price on a procurement for driver-side windows--although the release did not identify the company that submitted the price--is denied where the record shows that the price was displayed anonymously as part of a planned, but cancelled, reverse auction, and where the record shows that the protester ultimately won the award for the driver-side windows, leading to the release of an award announcement which provided the same pricing information and the protester's name. Under these circumstances, we cannot see how the protester was competitive harmed by the release of a price that was ultimately disclosed in the award announcement. DECISION OSG, Inc., of Emporia, Virginia, protests the Defense Logistics Agency's (DLA) actions under request for proposals (RFP) No. SPE7L3-14-R-0121 (R-0121) for mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicle passenger-side windows. The protester contends that DLA's release of OSG's price in a separate procurement--for MRAP driver-side windows--competitively prejudiced the firm in the current procurement. We deny the protest. BACKGROUND Solicitation R-0121, issued on June 30, 2014, provided for the award of a fixed-price contract for 560 vehicular windows, identified as national stock number (NSN) 2541-
