handle is hein.gao/gaobadtpd0001 and id is 1 raw text is: GAOU.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE 441 G St. N.W. Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States ....................................................................................................................... DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to Decision a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: MINACT, Inc. File: B-414615; B-414615.2 Date: July 12, 2017 Lindsay Simmons, Esq., Jackson Kelly PLLC, for the protester. Dennis A. Adelson, Esq., Vijaya S. Surampudi, Esq., Department of Labor, for the agency. Mary G. Curcio, Esq., and Laura Eyester, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Incumbent protester is not eligible to compete for task order under indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contingency contract, where agency did not exercise option to extend services in incumbent contract, and contingency contract precludes incumbent from receiving a task order under those circumstances. 2. Protest that agency issued a task order outside the scope of the IDIQ contract under which it was issued is dismissed as untimely where protest was not filed until after the closing date for offers. 3. Protest that agency intends to issue future solicitation as a small business set-aside to preclude protester, which is a large business, from competing is dismissed as premature where solicitation has not been issued. DECISION MINACT, Inc., of Jackson, Mississippi, protests the issuance of task order No. 1630J3- 17-T-00001 to Dynamic Educational Systems, Inc., of Phoenix, Arizona, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. DOL-ETA-17-D-0005, issued by the Department of Labor (DOL), for a vendor to operate the Finch Henry Job Corps Center in Batesville, Mississippi. MINACT complains that the agency performed an unreasonable evaluation of quotations, improperly issued the task order under the agency's indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contingency contract, and improperly plans to conduct a future procurement as a small business set-aside in retaliation for MINACT's filing the instant protest.
