Canfield, Esq., and Evan D. Wesser, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging the agency's evaluation of the protester's quotation and best-value tradeoff determination in a task order procurement is dismissed where the protester does not allege that the agency's issuance of the task order increases the scope, period, or maximum value of the underlying contract, and where the value of the issued task order does not exceed the applicable jurisdictional threshold.
