handle is hein.gao/gaobadtxb0001 and id is 1 raw text is: G U.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE 441 G St. N.W. Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States Decision Matter of: AeroSage, LLC File: B-414917 Date: October 17, 2017 David M. Snyder for the protester. Howard M. Kaufer, Esq., Jared M. Miller, Esq., and Journey L. Beard, Esq., Defense Logistics Agency, for the agency. Gabriel D. Soil, Esq., and Christina Sklarew, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging an agency's decision not to set aside a procurement for small businesses is denied where the agency's market research did not demonstrate that the agency was likely to receive proposals at fair market prices from at least two small businesses capable of performing the required services. DECISION AeroSage, LLC, a service-disabled veteran-owned small business of Tampa, Florida, protests the terms of request for proposals (RFP) No. SPE600-17-R-0220, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) for the supply of fuels to various installations and facilities in the Northeastern region of the United States. 1 The protester argues that DLA improperly failed to set aside the entire procurement for exclusive small business participation, and that the agency improperly sought a waiver of the small business nonmanufacturer rule from the Small Business Administration (SBA) only for a portion, rather than all, of the solicitation's line items. We deny the protest. 1 RFP No. SPE600-17-R-0220 is a renumbered solicitation originally issued on December 16, 2016 as solicitation No. SPE600-17-R-0205.
