Agency Improperly Waived Requirement for Past Experience Examples; GAO B-417126, AlliantCorps LLC

Protest alleging the agency improperly waived a material requirement is sustained, where the agency considered a past experience reference for the awardee that lacked a CPARS report, contrary to the solicitation’s requirements, and where the protester plausibly asserted that it would have submitted different references had it known this requirement would be waived.
