Court Finds Government Made Counteroffer Not Change to Solicitation; COFC No. 15-666C, Government Services Corp. v. The United States

Appeal of the contracting officer’s denial of a claim for additional costs incurred under a contract for fuel delivery is denied, where the agency’s communications after the closing of a reverse auction procurement amounted to a counteroffer establishing a no-cost contract for fuel dispensing services, the terms of which were accepted by the contractor.
