C. 20548 UITtD FILE: B-208801.2 DATE: Tovember 16, 1982 Committee of Domestic Steel Wire Rope & MATTER OF: Specialty Cable Manufacturers-- Reconsideration DIGEST: Prior decision that a trade association is not an interested party under GAO Bid Pro- test Procedures where no member of the trade association has a direct or substantial interest with regard to procurement is affirmed. The Committee of Domestic Steel Wire Rope & Speci- alty Cable Manufacturers requests that we reconsider our decision in the matter of Committee of Domestic Steel Wire Rope & Specialty Cable Manuacturers, B-20388O, Sep- tember 15, 1982, 82-2 CPD 231. In that decision, we dismissed a protest filed by the Committee on the basis that the Committee was not an interested party under our Bid Protest Procedures, 4 C.F.R. § 21.1(a)(1982). We affirm our previous decision. The Committee's protest concerned the Department of the Army's award of a contract to ALBECO Fastener Co. under invition for bids No. DACW33-82-B-0033, a small business set-aside for steel wire rope. The Com- mittee argued that ALBECO made an incorrect representa- tion in its bid concerning its status as a small business because the goods ALBECO offered allegedly were not manufactured domestically, as required by the solicita- tion. We determined that the Committee was not an interested party because no member of the Committee had the requisite direct and financial interest to maintain a protest. This determination was based on advice from the Department of the Army that neither the second nor third low bidders is a member of the Committee. Cl ), -1
