Can anyone tell me the criteria for protesting a task order award under an IDIQ? Does it depend on the Agency? If so, let's use DOT as an example. I believe the task order award being disputed must have a value of $10M in order to protest. Direct me to the FAR clause or other guidance on this matter so I calm our PM's down.

Unless Congress extends it, the ability to protest goes away.

2011 NDAA extended the sunset date for Defense Agencies until 2016.
HR 899 and S 498 are looking at doing the same thing for civilian agencies.
