             DIGEST

             Propriety of agency determination regarding proper Standard Industrial
             Classification code assigned to a procurement is not for consideration by the
             General Accounting Office since conclusive authority over this matter is vested in
             the Small Business Administration.
             DECISION

             Lawyers Advantage Title Group, Inc. protests the Department of Housing and
             Urban Development's (HUD) cancellation of request for proposals (RFP)
             No. 803R95081800000 for real estate closing agent services in Maryland, Virginia,
             and Washington, D.C., and HUD's resolicitation of those requirements under
             solicitation No. H03B97008200000.

             We dismiss the protests.

             On September 25, 1995, the agency issued solicitation No. 803R95081800000 as a
             total small business set-aside under Standard Industrial Classification (SIC) code
             6531, real estate agents and managers. The solicitation permitted the selection of
             multiple awardees.

             Several firms, including Lawyers Advantage, submitted proposals by the closing
             date; best and final offers (BAFOs) were subsequently requested and submitted. By
             letter dated October 30, 1996, the agency notified the offerors that it intended to
             award two contracts and identified Lawyers Advantage and another firm as the
             successful offerors. Offerors' prices were not disclosed.
