Bid Protests filed by Contractors

Bid protests are formal challenges submitted by contractors when they believe a government agency’s procurement process or awarding decision was unfair, flawed, or improperly conducted. Contractors may protest if they think the process violated rules, bid evaluations were biased, or other irregularities occurred. These protests aim to ensure transparency and fairness in government contracting, often leading to reviews or reconsideration of the award decision. Essentially, it's a way for contractors to formally dispute the outcome if they believe their bid was unjustly overlooked or the process was compromised.
