Watson's GAO bid protest attorneys help government contractors throughout the United States and overseas to avoid mistakes during the bid protest process. Call a litigation lawyer at our law firm if you need help filing a Court of Federal Claims bid protest or Government Accountability Office. A contractor may generally make a bid protest to the agency, GAO or Court of Federal Claims. One common mistake is to misapply the filing deadlines. You have ten days generally to file at the agency and GAO. Court of Federal Claims bid protests do not have an official deadline. However, you cannot sit on your rights for unreasonable amounts of times.
In a court of federal claims bid protest, you are not entitled to an automatic stay. Instead, your attorney will have to file a temporary restraining order (TRO).
Another common mistake made when filing a bid protest is that the filing party may not be an interested party. Intervenors, the actual awardee, will be an interested party, and entitled to intervene into the litigation.
Another common mistake is to file a government contract protest but not specify how the government did not comply with the solicitation requirements or somehow violated procurement law.
