As the first of a three-part series, partners David Ralston and Frank Murray published a Thomson Reuters Practical Law practice note, “Government Contracts: GAO Bid Protests,” which ran on January 3, 2017.
As prefaced in the article, the practice note describes the United States Government Accountability Office (GAO) bid protests that were filed by unhappy potential bidders, and discusses the benefits and disadvantages of GAO bid protests, compared to those with the United States Court of Federal Claims and at the agency level.
