Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 01.27.06
GAO recently reported to Congress a 23% "sustain" (win) rate for protests decided in FY05. Even more impressive, GAO reported an "effectiveness" rate of 37%, meaning that, between winning the protest and having the agency concede error and take corrective action before a decision was rendered, protestors obtained effective relief in over one-third of the protests resolved last fiscal year.

June 24, 2026), the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit clarified that in most cases, a pre-award protest must be filed before the proposal submission deadline to avoid the Blue & Gold waiver rule.
