DIGEST Pursuant to statutory and regulatory limitations on this Office's jurisdiction to hear protests challenging Transportation Security Administration (TSA) procurements, this Office will not consider a protest challenging a TSA procurement conducted in connection with a solicitation issued prior to June 23, 2008. DECISION Carahsoft Technologies Corporation and Avue Technologies Corporation (Carahsoft/Avue) protest the Transportation Security Administration's (TSA) award of a contract to Lockheed Martin Integrated Systems, Inc. pursuant to solicitation No. HSTS01-08-HRM010. The solicitation was issued by TSA on October 18, 2007, seeking a contractor to provide various human resource services. Carahsoft/Avue protest various aspects of the agency's source selection decision. We dismiss the protest. In 2001 Congress enacted the Aviation Transportation Security Act, relevant portions of which are set forth at 49 U.S.C. § 114 (2004 Supp.), establishing the TSA as a new agency within the Department of Transportation and tasking it with broad transportation security responsibilities. Pursuant to 49 U.S.C. § 40110(d) (2005 Supp.), TSA procurements were subject to the Federal Aviation Administration's (FAA) acquisition management system and, because the statute also stipulated that procurements under that system are exempt from our bid protest
