DIGEST

Protest challenging the exclusion of the protester's quotation from the competition is
denied where the agency reasonably found that the protester was ineligible for award
because its quotation was based on a Federal Supply Schedule contract that included
an insufficient period of performance to cover the potential duration of the anticipated
blanket purchase agreement.
DECISION

Delmock Technologies, Inc., of Baltimore, Maryland, protests its elimination from the
competition under request for quotations (RFQ) No. 28321320Q0000001 1, issued by
the Social Security Administration to establish multiple-award blanket purchase
agreements (BPAs) for information technology support services. The protester argues
that the agency improperly found it ineligible for award on the basis that its General
Services Administration (GSA) Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contract, on which it
based its quotation, included an insufficient period of performance to cover the potential
duration of the anticipated BPA.


We deny the protest.
