File:        B-416917

Date:        January 2, 2019

Thomas K. David, Esq., Kenneth Brody, Esq., and Katherine David, Esq., David, Brody
& Dondershine, LLP, for the protester.
James Y. Boland, Esq., and Spencer P. Williams, Esq., Venable LLP, for RiVidium, Inc.,

Sam Le, Esq., Small Business Administration, for the agencies.

DIGEST

Protester is not an interested party to challenge issuance of a delivery order set aside
for participants in the Small Business Administration's 8(a) program where the delivery
order was issued under a multiple-award contract not initially set aside for 8(a)
competition, and where the protester had graduated from the 8(a) program, and
therefore, was not an 8(a) program participant eligible for award on the date specified in
the solicitation for receipt of quotations.
DECISION

MIRACORP, Inc., a small business located in Gilbert, Arizona, protests the issuance of
a delivery order to RiVidium, Inc., an 8(a) small business located in Manassas, Virginia,
under request for quotations (RFQ) No. 89503118RWA000008, issued by the
Department of Energy (DOE), for administrative support services. MIRACORP, which is
the incumbent contractor for the requirement, challenges the agency's evaluation and
award decision.

We dismiss the protest on the basis that the protester is not an interested party to
challenge the order.
