No Constructive Knowledge When Amendment Not Posted to FedBizOpps

GAO rejected the Army's argument that the protester had constructive knowledge of the AFSI posting, holding that offerors are only charged with constructive knowledge of procurement actions published on a designated, government-wide point of entry, which, for business opportunities greater than $25,000, is only FedBizOpps.gov.
