Accountability * Integrity * Reliability of the United States United States General Accounting Office DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE Washington, DC 20548 The decision issued on the date below was subject to a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Decision Matter of: The LEADS Corporation File: B-292465 Date: September 26, 2003 James J. McCullough, Esq., and Steven A. Alerding, Esq., Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, for the protester. Craig S. King, Esq., Richard J. Webber, Esq., and Frederick D. McKalip, Esq., Arent Fox, for CACI, Inc.-Federal, an intervenor. David A. Ridgely, Esq., and Lt. Col. Nathaniel P. Causey, Department of the Army, for the agency. David A. Ashen, Esq., and John M. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Contracting agency reasonably determined not to reject the quotation from the vendor selected to receive an order for augmentation of the agency's procurement staff on the basis of organizational conflicts of interest (OCI) where any potential OCI can be avoided by the careful assignment of work under the contract to ensure that the vendor's contracting specialists do not handle matters (procurements or contracts) in which the vendor has an interest. DECISION The LEADS Corporation protests the Defense Contracting Command-Washington's (DCC-W) issuance of an order (DASWO1-03-F-0810) to CACI, Inc.-Federal for support services. The order was issued to CACI under its General Services Administration Federal Supply Schedule contract. LEADS challenges DCC-W's acceptance of CACI's organizational conflict of interest (OCI) mitigation plan and the evaluation of proposals. We deny the protest. DCC-W furnishes contracting support to numerous Department of Defense components in the Military District of Washington, processing over 10,000 contract actions in fiscal year 2002. Although the RFQ here generally described the required work as furnishing acquisition services, contract management oversight, evaluation services, and assisting DCC-W in receiving, tracking, and processing acquisition
