DIGEST Protest alleging that agency's program manager has an apparent conflict of interest is sustained where record shows that the agency's contracting officer recognized the apparent conflict of interest, but did nothing to investigate or mitigate the conflict. DECISION Satellite Tracking of People, LLC (STOP), of Houston, Texas, protests the issuance of a task order to BI Incorporated, of Boulder, Colorado, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. 15-Q-0143, issued by the Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency for the District of Columbia (CSOSA) for global positioning system (GPS) equipment and monitoring services. 1 STOP maintains that the agency misevaluated quotations and made an unreasonable source selection decision. STOP also maintains that an employee of the agency had a conflict of interest that CSOSA failed to mitigate that resulted in the acquisition being tainted. 1 CSOSA is a federal agency established in the executive branch and, therefore, subject to our jurisdiction. D.C. Code § 24-133(a); see also Cooper v. Johnson, et al., 652 F. Supp. 2d. 33 (D.D.C. 2009).
