latiOn of Request for Proposals (BFP) No. F61308-72--0001, Issued
by the epartmnt of the Air Force for the procrewnt of filled
Milk at the Torrejon and Zaroza Air Force Baees in apain, and

been handled in the past. You &Leo request that your firm be
allowed relef for the damages you have incurred by reason of the
investmaet of time ad mney in connection with the prepration
of your offer under the subject M.

     Vhile you have given several reaso  to support your protest,
they can be  mnarized as follows: (1) There was no lack of a
requ r ement for the product so a to justify cancealation pursuant
to the authority of paragraph 2-Q9f the Armed Services Procure-
ment Regulation (AsR); (2) the procurement of fresh mil4 from a
foreign source is in specific Yiolation of AO1 6-805.WrhIch
restricts procurement of this item to United States end products;
and, (3) the prices at which Old Dominion ad proposed to supply
filled milk products are substantia&ly lower than those prices
oursently paid for fresh zilk.

     From the record, including our independent investigation of
this matter, the fboing facts were disclosed concerning procure-
ments for filled mk generally, the circumstances vhich gave rise
to the decision to abange from filled to fresh milk, and the resul-.
tant cancellation, of the subject RFP.
