            Logistic Systems Incorporated-
               equest for Reconsideration
DIGEST:                                 -


       Prior decision concluding that corrective
       action of partial termination of awarded
       contract was not feasible is affirmed where
       audit verifies that substantial performance
       had already been accomplished and that sub-
       stantial costs would have been involved in
       any partial termination.


     Logistic Systems Incorporated (LSI) requests
reconsideration of our decision in Logistic Systems
Incorporated, 59 Comp. Gen.      (1980), 80-1 CPD 442.

     In its initial protest, LSI challenged the ade-
quacy of the discussions leading to the contract awarded   p
to Rockwell International Corporation (Rockwell) for the Cr
decontamination and cleanup of Frankford Arsenal,
Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. We concluded that the dis-
cussions could have been more extensive in view of the
fact that LSI's proposal, which was placed in the com-
petitive range, was found to be informationally inade-
quate so that the contracting officer could not determine
the extent of LSI's compliance with general solicitation
requests for information.

     However, we concluded that recompetition of the
remaining work to be performed under the awarded con-
tract was not feasible.  This conclusion was based on
our determination that the discussion shortcoming did
not result from other than good faith and that per-
formance under the contract had progressed to the point
that substantial costs would be required for any partial
termination of the contract.
