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: Career Systems Development Corporation File: B-411346.11 ; B-411346.12; B-416021 ; B-416021.2 Date: May 18, 2018 Richard B. O'Keeffe, Jr., Esq., Samantha S. Lee, Esq., and William A. Roberts III, Esq., Wiley Rein LLP, for the protester. Alex P. Hontos, Esq., and Daniel D. Falknor, Esq., Dorsey & Whitney LLP, for Management & Training Corporation, the intervenor. Peter J. Dickson, Esq., Dennis A. Adelson, Esq., and Vijaya S. Surampudi, Esq., Department of Labor, for the agency. Noah B. Bleicher, Esq., and Peter H. Tran, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest of agency's decision to cancel a solicitation is denied where the agency contemporaneously documented four compelling rationales that support the reasonableness of the cancellation. 2. Protest of agency's award of a sole-source contract awarded on the basis that the awardee was the only responsible source is sustained where the agency failed to meaningfully consider whether the protester was capable of performing the procured services. DECISION Career Systems Development Corporation (CSD), of West Henrietta, New York, protests the Department of Labor's (DOL) decision to cancel request for proposals (RFP) No. DOLJ13PA20010, and to award contract No. 1630J2-18-C-0008 to Management & Training Corporation (MTC), of Centerville, Utah, for the operation of the Earle C. Clements Job Corps Center (JCC) in Morganfield, Kentucky. CSD challenges the agency's decision to award MTC the contract on a sole-source basis, and objects to DOL's decision to cancel the competitive solicitation for the services. We deny the protest in part and sustain the protest in part.
