July 2023 Bid Protest Roundup: Personnel Loss, Conflicts, Timeliness
By Morrison Foerster LLP · Aug 8, 2023
This month’s bid protest roundup highlights two decisions from the U.S. Court of Federal Claims (“Court”), one addressing an offeror’s loss of key personnel and a second addressing organizational conflicts of interest (“OCIs”) arising out of an offeror’s reliance on former government employees in preparing its bid. A third decision from the U.S. Government Accountability Office (“GAO”) provides a helpful reminder on protest timeliness when no debriefing is required.
