          DIGEST

          Where  a competitive request for task order proposals issued under a long-term
          multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract limits competition to
          small disadvantaged business concerns, procuring agency properly may require firms
          to re-certify as to their small business size status as of the time they submit their task
          order proposals.
          DECISION

          Enterprise Information Services, Inc. (EIS), of Vienna, Virginia, protests the terms of
          task order request for proposals (Task Order RFP) No. FA8773-10-R-6008, issued by
          the Department of the Air Force for network services in furtherance of the agency's
          enterprise network services acquisition (ENSA) procurement. EIS asserts that the
          solicitation improperly requires offerors to re-certify their small business size status
          as of the time they submit their task order proposals.

          We deny the protest.

          The solicitation contemplates the issuance of a task order under the successful
          offeror's General Services Administration (GSA) 8(a) streamlined technology
