Prior decision is affirmed where protester has not demonstrated decision was based upon error of fact or law. 2. Solicitation was properly canceled and readvertised, where, according to protester's argument, it was ensnared into nonrespon- siveness by defective specifications, and defective specifications may have prevented maximum competition. Austin-Camnpbell Co. has requested reconsideration of our decision in Austin-Campbell Co., B-189032, September 28, 1977, 77-2 CPD 236, in which we held that the proteuter's bid under invitation for bids No. DACAO7-77-B-0003, issued by the United States Army Corps of Engineers, was properly rejected as nonresponsive and the solicitation canceled and readvertised. The procurement was for a cold storage room for use in Korea and award was ultimately made to another firm under the cesolicitatlon. (Austin-Campbell did not bid.) Austin-Campbell conteilids that our decisirn is erroneous because it is based upon the fact chat Austin- Campbell bid on a refrigeration unit having a 15,300- BTU/H capacity when in fact it did not bid on any capacity as the solicitation's capacity was undefined and to submit capacity data would have required us to make assumptions. -1 - I I I f -t 0 I 4 KI A 'I I 4 ~2U, *1 .1 I
