handle is hein.gao/gaobadmnl0001 and id is 1 raw text is: The Comptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision Matterof- Teledyne CME--Request for Reconsideration File: B-223609.2 Date: October 17, 1986 DIGEST Prior decision is affirmed where request for reconsideration repnrases argument which was addressed in the decision and does not show any error of fact or law which warrants reversal. DECISION Teledyne CME requests reconsideratibn of our'decigion Teledyne CME, B-223609, Sept. 23, 1986, 86-2 C.P.D. I , in which we held, in part, that Teledyne's allegation that the Air Force had improperly certified the awardee, Watkins- Johnson, as an approved source for Solid State Acoustical Memory Systems (SSAMS) under the solicitation in question was untimely filed. We so held because the protest related to an alleged apparent solicitation impropriety, but was not filed until after the closing date for receipt of initial proposals. We affirm our prior decision. In its request for reconsideration, Teledyne concedes the untimeliness of the specific allegation, contained in its initial protest, that Watkins-Johnson was improperly desig- nated as an approved source for the SSAMS. However, Teledyne asserts that our decision incorrectly equates this allegation with an argument which was filed in its supplemental protest, based on information allegedly first revealed in the agency report. This alleged new protest basis concerns the exact method by which the Air Force determined that Watkins-Johnson was an approved source--namely by evaluation of the perform- ance of a different, interchangeable SSAMS unit which Watkins-Johnson was producing for ITT as a subcontractor, to ITT specifications, rather than by evaluation under the Air Force specification referenced in the solicitation. Teledyne asserts that our aecision does not address this argument that the Air Force applied changed evaluation criteria by errone- ously approving Watkins-Johnson's SSAMS on the basis of evaluation by similarity rather than by direct evaluation.
