Matter of:   Capgemini Government  Solutions, LLC

File:        B-421962

Date:     October 4,   2023

Ian Cronogue, Esq. and H. Todd Whay, Esq., Baker, Cronogue, Tolle & Werfel, LLP, for
the protester.
Shirin Ahlhauser, Esq., General Services Administration, for the agency.
Christopher Alwood, Esq., and Alexander O. Levine, Esq., Office of the General
Counsel, GAO,  participated in the preparation of the decision.
DIGEST

Protest challenging an agency official's failure to complete a past performance
questionnaire for an upcoming procurement is dismissed as premature where protest
was filed prior to the completion of the agency's evaluation and the agency has not
otherwise provided substantive notice that it interprets the solicitation to prohibit the
evaluation of past performance on the incumbent contract.
DECISION

Capgemini  Government  Solutions, LLC, of McLean, Virginia, protests the General
Services Administration's (GSA) refusal to complete a past performance questionnaire
for consideration in the evaluation conducted under request for quotations (RFQ) No.
1645904/47HAA023Q0126, issued by GSA for information  technology (IT) operations
and maintenance  and development support services. The protester contends that the
agency's decision not to complete a past performance questionnaire for the incumbent
contract is unreasonable.

We  dismiss the protest.

BACKGROUND

On August  30, 2023, the agency issued the RFQ to firms holding contracts under GSA's
Alliant 2 governmentwide acquisition contract. Req. for Dismissal, exh. 1, RFQ at 1;
