Protestor Bags Redo and B&P Costs, Too

In Alabama Aircraft Indus., Inc. v. U.S. (Oct. 7, 2008), the Court of Federal Claims disagreed with a prior protest denial by GAO by holding that the price realism evaluation of the Air Force's multiyear maintenance contract for its KC-135 fleet was fatally flawed because it relied on the unrealistic assumption of a non-aging fleet without adequately informing the offerors of that assumption. In addition to a ordering a complete resolicitation, Judge Lettow granted the protestor its bid and proposal costs "because of the lengthy process involved with the procurement."

On September 29, 2025, the U.S. Department of Commerce Bureau of Industry and Security (BIS) announced a sweeping Interim Final Rule (IFR), (the “Affiliates Rule”) expanding which entities qualify as Entity List or Military End-User entities, thereby subjecting those entities to elevated export control restrictions under the Export Administration Regulations (EAR). U.S. export restrictions applicable to entities on the Entity List, Military End-User (MEU) List, and Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons (SDN List) now apply to foreign affiliates that are, in the aggregate, owned 50% or more by one or more of the aforementioned entities. An entity that becomes subject to these restrictions because of its ownership structure will be subject to the most restrictive controls that attach to any of its parent entities, regardless of ownership stakes.
