| 04-27615 | Government Accountability Office, Administrative Practice and Procedure, Bid Protest Regulations, Government Contracts | Proposed Rule | The Government Accountability Office (GAO) is proposing to amend its Bid Protest Regulations, promulgated in accordance with the Competition in Contracting Act of 1984 (CICA), 31 U.S.C. 3551-3556, to implement the requirements in the Ronald W. Reagan National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2005, Pub. L. 108-375, 118 Stat. 1811, enacted on October 28, 2004. The proposed amendments to GAO's Bid Protest Regulations implement the legislation's provisions related to the bid protest process, where a public-private competition has been conducted under Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76, as revised on May 29, 2003, regarding an activity or function of a Federal agency performed by more than 65 full-time equivalent employees of the Federal agency. In this regard, the legislating grants designated representatives of an in-house competitor the status of an "interested party" to file a protest at GAO or the status of an "intervenor" to participate in a protest filed at GAO. In addition, consistent with the legislation, GAO is proposing to add a provision to its Bid Protest Regulations stating that GAO will not review the decision of an agency tender official to file a protest (or not to file a protest) in connection with a public-private competition. At this time, GAO believes that these proposed revisions are the only regulatory changes necessary to implement the statutory requirements expanding the definitions of an interested party and an intervenor in protests involving public-private competitions. GAO welcomes comments on these proposed revisions, as well as suggestions for changes to other areas of GAO's Bid Protest Regulations or the bid protest process at GAO relating to protests of public-private competitions conducted under OMB Circular A-76. --------------------------------------------------------------------------- | 2004-12-20 | 2004 | 12 | https://www.federalregister.gov/documents/2004/12/20/04-27615/government-accountability-office-administrative-practice-and-procedure-bid-protest-regulations | https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/FR-2004-12-20/pdf/04-27615.pdf | Government Accountability Office | 213 | The Government Accountability Office (GAO) is proposing to amend its Bid Protest Regulations, promulgated in accordance with the Competition in Contracting Act of 1984 (CICA), 31 U.S.C. 3551-3556, to implement the requirements in the Ronald W.
