wayforward Posted March 17, 2011 Report Share Posted March 17, 2011 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

woops85 Posted March 18, 2011 Report Share Posted March 18, 2011 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
