handle is hein.gao/gaocrptavzk0001 and id is 1 raw text is: G A A Comptroller General of the United States United States Government Accountability Office Washington, DC 20548 Decision Matter of: United Way of the National Capital Area File: B-311235 Date: May 16, 2008 Kelley P. Doran, Esq., Sean P. Bamford, Esq., Michael F. Scanlon, Esq., and Scott P. Lindsay, Esq., Kirkpatrick & Lockhart Preston Gates Ellis LLP, for the protester. Kerry McTigue, Esq., R. Alan Miller, Esq., and Linda Fallowfield, Esq., Office of Personnel Management, for the agency. Jonathan L. Kang, Esq., and Ralph 0. White, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Government Accountability Office does not have jurisdiction to hear protest of the signing of a memorandum of understanding under a competition conducted by a Local Fund Campaign Committee of the Combined Federal Campaign, because, while this action would appear to be a procurement of services for the benefit of the government, a Local Fund Campaign Committee is not a federal agency. DECISION The United Way of the National Capital Area protests the selection of Global Impact by the Combined Federal Campaign of the National Capital Area (CFCNCA) to serve as the principal combined fund organization (PCFO) for the Combined Federal Campaign (CFC) activities in the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. The United Way argues that the CFCNCA did not conduct a fair and reasonable competition in selecting Global Impact as the PCFO for the 2008 CFC campaign year. The Office of Personnel Management (OPM) argues that the CFCNCA is not a federal agency, and that our Office therefore does not have jurisdiction to hear this protest. As discussed below, we agree with OPM that our Office does not have jurisdiction to hear the protest and dismiss it on that basis.
