Watchdog Agency Denies Challenges to Professional Services Solicitation
The Government Accountability Office has denied a final group of five challenges to the solicitation for the Army’s $50 billion Marketplace for the Acquisition of Professional Services contract. The decision clears the way for the Army to move forward with the contract, which will consolidate work from several existing vehicles. The MAPS contract will provide staff augmentation and technology support services to the Army, and its award may have significant implications for the professional services market. The GAO’s decision was reported by Washington Technology.
