Abstract
Determination not to set aside procurement for labor surplus area concerns on basis that procurement is not severable into two economic production runs is not abuse of contracting officer's discretion where record presented reflects: (1) agency's indication of not insubstantial duplicative costs; (2) fact that there is reasonable indication that at least two competitive bids will be received; (3) possible duplication of certain fixed startup costs; (4) fact that delivery schedule must be tailored to meet agency's needs without consideration of impact on potential set asides; and (5) fact that procurement, although using performance specifications, was designed to achieve standardization of item.
