      MATTER   OF:  Labconco CorporationIc Reconsideration


      DIGEST:

         Request for reconsideration filed
         more than 10 working days after
         receipt of prior decision is untimely
         .and not for consideration.

         Labconco Corporation (Labconco) requests.recon-
    sideration of our decision in the matter of Labconco
    Corporation, B-198284, April 17, 1980, 80-1 CPD 273,
    dismissing as untimely Labconco's protest against the
)?  General Services Administration's (GSA) rejection of
    its offer as late under request for proposals No. FCGE-
    D-75091-N, issued by the Federal Supply Service.

        Labconco's request for reconsideration was filed
    with our Office on May 13, 1980, 18 working days after
    issuance of fhe decision. The record does not indicate
    when Labconco 1received the decision. However, we believe
    it is reasonable to assume that the decision was received,
    at the latest, 1 calendar week after its issuance, or by
    April 24, 1980.

         Therefore, Labconco's request is untimely under
    our Bid Protest Procedures, 4 C.F.R. § 20.9(b) (1980),
    which require that requests for reconsideration be filed
    within 10 working days (May 8, 1980) after the basis for
    reconsideration is known or should have been known. See
    Whitaker Supply Company, Incorporated--Reconsideration,
    B-196072, November 9, 1979, 79-2 CPD 348.

         The request for reconsideration.is dismissed.
