handle is hein.gao/gaobaebyu0001 and id is 1 raw text is: GAO U.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE 441 G St. N.W. 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: The MayaTech Corporation File: B-419313 Date: November 9, 2020 Jonathan D. Shaffer, Esq., and Todd M. Garland, Esq., Smith Pachter McWhorter PLC, for the protester. Kayleigh Scalzo, Esq., and Michael Pierce, Esq., Covington & Burling, LLP, for National Opinion Research Center, the intervenor. Tami S. Hagberg, Esq., and Anthony E. Marrone, Esq., Department of Health and Human Services, for the agency. Young H. Cho, Esq., and Peter H. Tran, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest arguing that the agency improperly increased the scope of the underlying indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract by failing to follow the evaluation criteria set forth in the request for task order proposals is dismissed because the Government Accountability Office does not have jurisdiction to review the matter; where the protester's arguments reflect only its disagreement with the manner in which the agency evaluated the task order proposal and does not otherwise demonstrate that the task order is outside the scope of the underlying IDIQ contract. DECISION The MayaTech Corporation, of Silver Spring, Maryland, protests the issuance of a task order to the National Opinion Research Center (NORC), of Chicago, Illinois, under request for task order proposals (RFTOP) No. 75P00120R00117, issued by the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), for technical assistance and logistics support services. MayaTech argues that the agency failed to provide it with a fair opportunity to compete and improperly increased the scope of the underlying indefinite- delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract. We dismiss the protest for lack of jurisdiction.
