GAO Puts Substance Over Form in Past Performance Protest – SmallGovCon

in Blog by

Recently, GAO sustained a bid protest where an agency “unreasonably excluded” a joint venture’s proposal, which included all necessary information listed in the solicitation, from competition. The GAO held that it was unreasonable for the agency to exclude the joint venture merely because the joint venture’s proposal didn’t include a subcontract number for one of its past performance references. The GAO held, in essence, that the missing information was irrelevant because it had no bearing on the type of work completed.
