C. 20548 FILE: B-187016 DATE: August 6, 1976 MATTER OF: National Uniform Company, Inc. DIGEST: Where bid opening was held July dated July 20, 1976, based upon and ambiguous specifications is to Bid Protest Procedures. 15, 1976, protest allegedly vague untimely pursuant By mailgram dated July 20, 1976, National Uniform Company, Inc. (National), protests award of a contract under solicitation DADAI5-76-B-0077, issued by Walter Reed Army Medical Center, on the basis of allegedly vague and ambiguous specifications. Bid opening was July 15, 1976. #IA Section420.2 (b)(l)(of our Bid Protest Procedures, 40 Fed. Reg. 17979 (1975) provides that protests based upon alleged improprieties in any type of solicitation which are apparent prior to bid opening must be filed prior to bid opening. Since National's protest concerns alleged improprieties in a solici- tation which were apparent prior to bid opening, the protest should have been filed prior to the bid opening date of July 15, 1976. Yet, as noted above, National's protest is dated July 20, 1976. Thus, the protest is untimely and will not be considered on the merits. Paul G. Dembling General Counsel -1- ~ &~7~2> 777U 7' 30b 305 B
