Government Contract Protests
Whether you lost an award or need to challenge the terms of a solicitation, a bid protest is a powerful tool available to government contractors. There are several forums in which a protest may be filed, and each has its own set of rules and regulations. The timely filing of a bid protest is of utmost importance, because untimely protest will be summarily dismissed. This guide provides an overview of government contract protests. It will inform you of the steps necessary for a protest and what to expect from the process. A government contracts lawyer is often necessary to adequately pursue a protest. Protests filed with the Court of Federal Claims require a company to be represented by a lawyer. In addition, most protests will be subject to a protective order that will limit access to competitively sensitive procurement information (e.g. the proposal submitted by your competitor and the agency’s evaluation information) to lawyers.
