Kenneth Kilgour, Esq., and Christine S. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest that agency unreasonably determined that an offeror's revised proposal did not meet the solicitation's submittal requirement is dismissed as untimely; any conflict between the requirement as described in the agency's discussions letter (as interpreted by the protester) and the solicitation requirement created a patent ambiguity that should have been filed prior to the submission deadline for revised proposals. DECISION Harrington, Moran, Barksdale, Inc. (HMBI), of Arlington, Texas, protests the issuance of Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) task orders to other offerors under request for quotations (RFQ) No. R-OPC-23441, issued by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for asset manager services to assist the agency with ensuring lender compliance with property conveyance requirements. The protester asserts that the agency unreasonably determined that the protester's proposal failed to comply with the RFQ's submittal requirements. We dismiss the protest.
