Decision, Matter of: Grant Thornton, LLC

Abstract

Grant Thornton, LLC, of Alexandria, Virginia, challenges the terms of request for quotations (RFQ) No. HQ003418R0198, which was issued by the Department of Defense (DOD), Washington Headquarters Services, for auditing support services. The protester argues that the solicitation, which was issued under the Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) provisions of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) subpart 8.4, is unduly restrictive of competition because it requires vendors to quote labor categories from their FSS contracts that "align precisely" with the minimum years of experience in the RFQ.
