Protests after award Sample Clauses
Protests after award. Upon receipt of a timely filed protest regarding the award of a Contract, Pace will issue a stop work order, if necessary, until the resolution of the protest if Pace determines that the protestor has established a Prima facie case that the Contract was awarded fraudulently or in violation of Federal or State law or Pace's Procurement Regulations.
Protests after award. When, after award of a contract, VA receives notice from GAO of a protest filed directly with GAO, the contracting officer must, if required to do so by FAR 33.104(c)(1), immediately suspend per- formance. However, contract perform- ance need not be suspended, despite the protest, if the SPE approves the HCA’s findings required by FAR 33.104(c)(2) and GAO has been notified under FAR 33.104(c)(3). Authority to approve the HCA’s findings is further delegated to the DSPE and, for solicitations issued by the Officer of Construction and Fa- cilities Management, the Director, Of- fice of Construction and Facilities Management. The Director, Acquisi- tion Resources Service, or the Direc- tor, Office of Construction and Facili- ties Management, as appropriate, is re- sponsible for notifying GAO.
