Partner Frank Murray was quoted in a
Bloomberg article, “

To help make its case, Murray said, Amazon could examine whether there were any differences between how the companies’ bids were evaluated by lower level technical staff and top Pentagon officials. If top officials overrode the recommendation of their technical staff, that could be a significant piece of evidence for Amazon. “The nuts and bolts of the case are going to be: how were the proposals evaluated? And were they reasonable?” he said.
