Robert L. Mercadante, Esq., Defense Logistics Agency, for the agency. Aldo A. Benejam, Esq., and Christine S. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Vendor bears responsibility for timely conveying its quote, including all information required by request for quotations to determine the technical acceptability of the proposed item, to the designated government office. Where protester allegedly transmitted required information by facsimile, but agency denies timely receipt and there is no proof of receipt, agency reasonably considered quotation incomplete and properly rejected it as technically unacceptable. DECISION Huntington Valley Industries (HVI) protests the rejection of its quotation under request for quotations (RFQ) No. SP0500-96-Q-LG30, issued by the Defense Industrial Supply Center (DISC) for internal wrenching bolts. We deny the protest. The procurement was conducted under simplified acquisition procedures authorized by the Federal Acquisition Streamlining Act of 1994, 10 U.S.C. § 2304(g) (1994), as implemented in part 13 of the Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR). The RFQ was issued by DISC under automated procedures using the DISC electronic bulletin board to solicit and receive quotations. Firms desiring access to the electronic bulletin board to review the RFQs and submit quotations are required to enter into small purchase agreements with DISC. The agreements set forth terms, conditions, provisions, and clauses which are applicable to RFQs and purchase orders issued by 10321129
