B-421258

December 22, 2022

Steven A. Neeley, Esq., Michael J. Schrier, Esq., and George E. Stewart, Esq., Husch
Blackwell, LLP, for the protester.
Natica Chapman Neely, Esq., Department of Veterans Affairs, for the agency.
Scott H. Riback, Esq., and Tania Calhoun, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO,
participated in the preparation of the decision.
DIGEST
Protest challenging agency's decision to terminate protester's contract is dismissed
where the protest concerns a matter of contract administration that Government
Accountability Office does not have jurisdiction to consider.
DECISION
Crosstown Courier Service, Inc., of Chicopee, Massachusetts, protests certain
corrective action taken in response to an agency-level protest that it filed in connection
with request for quotations (RFQ) No. 36C24222Q0540, issued by the Department of
Veterans Affairs (VA) for courier services to be performed at the agency's New York
Harbor Healthcare System. Crosstown argues that the agency improperly has
terminated a contract awarded to the firm.
We dismiss the protest.
BACKGROUND
This is our third occasion to consider the agency's actions in connection with its efforts
to acquire these services. In March 2021, the agency issued a different solicitation
(RFQ No. 36C2422000977) to acquire these services, and in June 2021, the agency
awarded a contract to FG Management Group, LLC. In the wake of that award
decision, another concern, Marquis Solutions, LLC, filed a protest with our Office
challenging the propriety of the agency's award. We sustained Marquis's protest,
finding that the agency's evaluation of quotations and source selection decision did not
withstand logical scrutiny; treated firms disparately; and failed adequately to document
