Incumbent Employees’ Unintentional Disclosure of Protester’s Direct Labor Rates to Awardee Does Not Derail Corrective Action; GAO B-415744.2, AlliantCorps LLC

Protest challenging the agency’s corrective action is denied, where nothing prohibited incumbent employees from applying for jobs with the apparent awardee and divulging their salary information, even though this unintentionally divulged the basis for some of the protester’s proposed pricing to the awardee prior to the conclusion of the corrective action; and where the solicitation stated that past performance references deemed not relevant would not be given further consideration and that offerors would not be allowed to offer substitutions, even after discussions.
