Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States ....................................................................................................................... DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to Decision a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Epsilon Systems Solutions, Inc. File: B-414410.4 Date: November 6, 2017 David B. Dixon, Esq., Meghan Doherty, Esq., and Richard Starling, Esq., Pillsbury Winthrop Shaw Pittman LLP, for the protester. Richard B. O'Keeffe, Jr., Esq., William A. Roberts, III, Esq., and Gary S. Ward, Esq., Wiley Rein LLP, for URS Federal Services, Inc., an intervenor. Bruce S. Potocki, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Nora K. Adkins, Esq., and Amy B. Pereira, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest asserting that the agency improperly relaxed certain requirements during performance of a task order is dismissed where protester failed to demonstrate an exception to the general rule that our Office does not review matters of contract administration. DECISION Epsilon Systems Solutions, Inc., of San Diego, California, protests the Department of the Navy, Naval Sea Systems Command's (NAVSEA) modification of task order No. N5523617F3001, which was awarded to URS Federal Services, Inc., of Germantown, Maryland, for engineering and technical support services at the Navy's Southwest Regional Maintenance Center (SWRMC). The protester, the incumbent contractor, alleges that the Navy improperly relaxed the requirements by removing two statement of work (SOW) provisions, which materially changed the scope of work anticipated by the solicitation and resulted in an improper sole-source contract for the modified work in violation of the Competition in Contracting Act (CICA). We dismiss the protest because it raises a matter of contract administration over which we do not exercise jurisdiction.
