File: B-280953 Date: December 11, 1998 Robert H. Koehler, Esq., and Christy G. Slade, Esq., Patton Boggs, for the protester. Maj. Cynthia Mabry, JAGC, Vera Meza, Esq., and Nancy L. Holzwanger, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Paul Lieberman, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Combination of system requirements in single acquisition is unobjectionable where procurement involves a foreign military sale and the foreign customer on whose behalf the procurement is being conducted has requested that all system components be acquired under a consolidated procurement. DECISION Electro Design Manufacturing, Inc. (EDM) protests the terms of request for proposals (RFP) No. DAAHO1-98-R-0403, issued by the U.S Army Aviation & Missile Command in connection with a foreign military sales (FMS) acquisition of TOW 2 Launcher Systems and associated auxiliary equipment for Taiwan. EDM complains that the solicitation improperly combines the primary components of the TOW 2 Launcher System. We deny the protest. On July 31, 1998, the Army issued RFP No. DAAH01-98-R-0403 seeking proposals for specified quantities of the components which comprise the TOW 2 Launcher Systems which are to be provided to Taiwan under the FMS program. The Launcher Systems are comprised of two primary components: the launcher and the night vision sight equipment.1 1Other auxiliary equipment within the Launcher Systems includes a vehicle power conditioner modification kit, a post amplifier test set, a boresight collimator test set, and a battery charger.
