B-274201 1 (1996-11-26)

handle is hein.gao/gaocrptaela0001 and id is 1 raw text is: Comptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision Matter of: New Breed Leasing Corporation File: B-274201; B-274202 Date: November 26, 1996 Matthew A. Simchak, Esq., Philip J. Davis, Esq., and Phillip H. Harrington, Esq., Wiley, Rein & Fielding, for the protester. William E. Franczek, Esq., Vandeventer, Black, Meredith & Martin, an intervenor. Dana N. Smith, Esq., and Anita D. Polen, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Paul Lieberman, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protests are sustained where agency's failure to recognize and correct obvious flaws in prior solicitations and contracts constituted lack of advance planning which precluded meaningful competition for requirements and resulted in sole source extensions of concededly flawed contracts with the incumbent contractor. DECISION New Breed Leasing Corporation protests the Department of the Navy's cancellation of solicitation Nos. N00189-94-R-0304 and N00189-94-R-0315 (hereinafter R-0304 and R-0315) for material handling and logistics support services at various sites throughout the world,1 and the sole source extensions of contract Nos. N-00189-94- D-0003 and N-00189-94-D-0006 (hereinafter D-0003 and D-0006) for those services. The solicitations were issued as small business set-asides; the incumbent contractor, Management Consulting, Inc. (Mancon) is a large business, not eligible to compete under the canceled solicitations. New Breed maintains there is no rational basis for the cancellation of the solicitations or for the sole source extensions of Mancon's contracts, and that the agency's actions resulted from a lack of advance planning. 1Solicitation No. R-0304 covers services for sites in the eastern half of the United States, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, and the Caribbean. Solicitation No. R-0315 covers services for sites in the western half of the continental United States, Hawaii, Guam, and Japan. 10551127
