In sustaining the second protest on past performance grounds filed by C&M on behalf of RGTS against the Air Force's $110 million award for F-15 support services, GAO held that the Air Force's purported corrective action and reevaluation was inconsistent with the solicitation because it improperly lumped together thousands of separate task orders under four IDIQ contracts, rather than reviewing past performance references for specific orders. Moreover, GAO held that the Air Force engaged in unequal treatment when it sought out and considered additional information for at least two other offerors, but refused to consider potentially mitigating information for RGTS that was readily available to the agency.

European Commission Publishes Landmark Guidelines on Exclusionary Abuses by Dominant Companies
On 3 September 2026, the European Commission adopted new Guidelines on the application of Article 102 TFEU to abusive exclusionary conduct by dominant undertakings. The Guidelines follow a public consultation on a draft published in August 2024 and reflect substantial stakeholder feedback. They replace the Commission's 2008 Guidance on enforcement priorities (which ceases to apply 30 days after publication of the new guidelines in the Official Journal) and represent the most significant reset of the Commission's Article 102 enforcement framework in nearly two decades. The Commission's stated aim is to set out principles and operational guidance, enhance legal certainty, and help companies self-assess their exclusionary-abuse risk.
