DIGEST

1. Protest challenging the agency's corrective action in response to an earlier protest is
denied where the corrective action rendered the earlier protest academic.

2. Protest challenging the amendment of the solicitation is denied where the protester
has not demonstrated that the agency abused its discretion when it eliminated one
evaluation factor.
DECISION

Trace Systems, Inc., of Vienna, Virginia, protests the scope of the Department of the
Army's corrective action following Trace's prior protest of the issuance of a task order to
TeleCommunication  Systems, Inc. (Comtech), of Annapolis, Maryland, under request
for task execution plan (RTEP) No. PANAPG-22-P-0000-019320.  The task order was
issued through the Army's Global Tactical Advanced Communication Systems (GTACS)
11 multiple award indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract. The contractor
was to provide global field service representative (GFSR) support services.


We  deny the protest.
