handle is hein.gao/gaocrptafrj0001 and id is 1 raw text is: oComptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision Matter of: General Physics Federal Systems, Inc. File: B-274795 Date: January 6, 1997 William M. Weisberg, Esq., William T. Welch, Esq., and Monica C. Gray, Esq., Barton, Mountain & Tolle, for the protester. James J. McCullough, Esq., Joel R. Feidelman, Esq., Catherine E. Pollack, Esq., and Lawrence E. Ruggiero, Esq., Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, for Science Applications International Corporation, an intervenor. Edward L. Williamson, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Scott H. Riback, Esq., and John M. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, General Accounting Office, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest against acceptance of offer that included proposal to use as a subcontractor the United States Department of Agriculture Graduate School (USDAGS) is dismissed as untimely; record shows that protester was advised at time of award that successful offeror proposed to use USDAGS to perform contract, and was further advised of the agency's position that this was legally permissible, but failed to diligently pursue publically available information that may have established basis for protest at that time. 2. Protest contentions based on information obtained by protester in connection with other untimely allegations are dismissed as untimely; had protester diligently pursued original basis for protest, information allegedly supporting additional arguments would have been obtained earlier and additional arguments would have been raised at that time. DECISION General Physics Federal Systems, Inc. (GPFS) protests the award of a contract to Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC) under request for proposals (RFP) No. DASW01-96-D-0033, issued by the Department of the Army for services in connection with various education and training programs. GPFS principally maintains that SAIC improperly proposed The United States Department of Agriculture Graduate School (USDAGS) as a subcontractor, and now intends to substitute another subcontractor. 40316
