handle is hein.gao/gaobaeaxw0001 and id is 1 raw text is: GAO U.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE 441 G St. N.W. 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 1been approved for public release. Matter of: IT Objects, LLC File: B-418012.3 Date: April 9, 2020 John R. Tolle, Esq., and H. Todd Whay, Esq., Baker, Cronogue, Tolle & Werfel, LLP, for the protester. James Rhodes, Esq., and Ryan J. Lambrecht, Esq., Department of Commerce, for the agency. Sarah T. Zaffina, Esq., and Jennifer D. Westfall-McGrail, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging agency's implementation of corrective action taken in response to GAO recommendation in prior sustained protest is dismissed where protester fails to state a valid basis of protest. DECISION IT Objects, LLC (ITO), a small business of Herndon, Virginia, protests the corrective action that the Department of Commerce, National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) is taking in response to our recommendation in IT Obiects, LLC, B-418012.1, B-418012.2, Jan. 2, 2020, 2020 CPD 2. In that decision, we sustained ITO's protest of the award of a contract to Ahtna RDI, JV, LLC (ARJV), a small business located in Anchorage, Alaska, under request for proposals (RFP) No. 1305M319RNFFS0008 for information technology services including software development and systems administration, for the Alaska Region of the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS). After finding that NOAA's evaluation of the awardee's technical proposal was unreasonable, we recommended that the agency reevaluate the awardee's technical proposal and prepare a new source selection decision, or take other such action permitted by the applicable statutes and regulations. The agency responded to our recommendation by reevaluating the awardee's proposal and deciding to conduct discussions with offerors and request final proposal revisions. The protester contends that these actions are inconsistent with our recommendation and thus are improper.
