DIGEST

Protest challenging an agency's non-acceptance of a revised bid submitted during a
reverse auction is denied where the record demonstrates that the agency did not
receive the revised bid prior to the closing time for the reverse auction.
DECISION

C2G Ltd. Company, a small business, of Goose Creek, South Carolina, protests the
non-acceptance of its revised bid submitted during a reverse auction under request
for proposals (RFP) No. SP3300-15-R-0005, issued by the Defense Logistics
Agency (DLA), for scheduled and unscheduled maintenance services on
government-owned equipment located at DLA Distribution Red River, Texas.1 C2G
contends that the reverse auction system utilized by the agency malfunctioned
when it did not accept the protester's revised bid submitted with approximately one
second left during the auction.

We deny the protest.


1 DLA represented that no award was made in response to the RFP during the
pendency of the protest. See Email from Agency Counsel (May 6, 2015) at 1.
