Erika Whelan Retta, Esq., Isabelle P. Cutting, Esq., Department of the Air Force, for the agency. Emily R. O'Hara, Esq., and Peter H. Tran, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest alleging agency improperly bundled requirements in violation of the Small Business Act is denied where the record shows that the requirements do not meet the definitional prerequisites of the bundling restrictions of the Act, i.e., the requirements were not previously performed under two separate, smaller contracts. 2.
