MATTER OF:Todd Shipyards Corporation


DIGEST:


1. Protester's contention that awardee was
    nonresponsive because it insured for
    workmen's compensation with company not
    authorized by Department of Labor is,
    without merit. Nothing on face .of
    awardee's bid limited, reduced or modified
    its obligation under terms of solicitation.
    Therefore, GAO finds awardee's bid was
    responsive.

'2. GAO does not review affirmative determina-
    tions of responsibility except where pro-
    tester alleges fraud or where solicitation
    contains definitive responsibility criteria
    which allegedly have not been applied. Pro-
    tester has not alleged fraud and GAO finds
    no definitive responsibility criteria in
    solicitation concerning procurement of
    workmen's compensation insurance.

Fabricating, Inc. (San.Francisco), under invitation
for bids (IFB) N62798-79-B-0128 issued by the
Supervisor of Shipbuilding, Conversion and Repair,
United States Navy, San Francisco, California. The
IFB, for repairs and alterations to the USS Flint
(AE-32), was opened on June 4, 1979.

     Todd contends that San Francisco failed to
comply with the requirements of clause 10, Liability
and Insurance, of DD Form 731, Master Contract for
Repair and Alteration of Vessels., which was incor-
porated into and made part of the IFB. In particular,
paragraph (d) of clause 10 provides as follows:
