Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to a Decision GAO Protective Order. This version has been approved for public release. Matter of: SOFITC3, LLC File: B-423083.3 Date: December 6, 2024 Jeff M. Chiow Esq., Timothy M. McLister, Esq., Jordan M. Malone, Esq., and Olivia C. Bellini, Esq., Greenberg Traurig, LLP, for the protester. Brian C. Habib, Esq., Department of Homeland Security, for the agency. Michael P. Grogan, Esq., and Evan D. Wesser, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging the scope of the agency's corrective action taken in response to previous post-award protests is dismissed as legally insufficient where the protester's allegations are based on impermissible speculation or a facially unreasonable interpretation of the solicitation's evaluation scheme. DECISION SOFITC3, LLC, a small business of Piscataway, New Jersey, protests the scope of the agency's proposed corrective action announced in response to SOFITC3's previous protest challenging the issuance of a task order to Delviom, LLC, a small business of Ashburn, Virginia, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. 70RTAC24Q00000089, issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), for cybersecurity governance and compliance. We dismiss the protest because, as filed with our Office, it does not establish a valid basis for challenging the scope of the agency's proposed corrective action. BACKGROUND Relevant to the issues presented in this protest, the RFQ, which was issued on August 20, 2024, and subsequently amended four times, contemplated a multi-phased quotation and evaluation process.
