Mr. Chairman And Members Of The Subcommittee:

     We are pleased to appear at the request of the Subcommittee to

discuss the decisions of July 11 and December 26, 1974, concerning the

the protest of Bristol Electronics, Inc., against an Army cotract

awarded to E-Systems, Inc. The United States Army Electronics Command,

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, issued a request for proposals (RFP) in

November 1973. The RFP solicited proposals for approximately 5,500

radio sets and transmitters for delivery to foreign national governments.

The RFP also contained an option provision allowing the Army the right

to buy up to an additional 5,500. Although the Army reserved an option

right, the RFP informed potential offerors that award would be decided

on the basis of prices submitted for the specified quantity only.

     In response to the RFP, five companies submitted proposals on

December 26, 1973. Two were eliminated from further competition
