         Acquisition Regulation (FAR).

         2. Protest challenging the agency's conclusion that the awardee did not violate the
         Procurement Integrity Act is denied where the investigation was consistent with the
         requirements of the FAR.

         3. Protest challenging the agency's affirmative determination of responsibility for
         the awardee is denied where the record does not show that the contracting officer
         failed to consider relevant, available information.
