PILE:  5-191099

MATTER  OF:


                DATE:  may 25, 1978
American Abrasive Metals Company


  DIGEST:
      Estimated peak monthly requirements (EPMRj
      for items were not halved when items were
      divided into set-aside and non-set-aside
      porticns, but rather total EPMR was listed
      as EPMR of each subitem.  IFB required
      that offeror's listed monthly supply potential
      must be able to cover total JPMR's for which
      offeror was low.  Therefore, it was improper
      and not consistent with IFB to total EPMR's
      for subitems in bid evaluation.

      American Abrasive Metals Company (AAM) has protested
the award of two requirements contracts to Palmer Products
Incorporated (Palmer) for nonslip flight deck compouna
under invitation for bids (IFB) No. BFPQ-Sl-30083 issued
by the General Servicos Administration (GSA).  basically,
AAM contends that GSA evaluated the bids in a manner incon-
sistent  with that set forth in the IFB and this incorrect
bi! evaluation resulted in AAM being found nonresponsive
for several items for which it was low bidder.

Construction of IFB

    AAM is protesting the award of items 9A, 9B and 9F.
Item 9, partially set aside for small business, was
presented in the IFB as follows:

    ITEM 9 - PARTIAL SET ASIDE

    ITEMS 9A THRU 9E NOT SET ASIDE FOR SMALL BUSINESS.
