Task Order Protest as Breach at The ASBCA
Client Alert | less than 1 min read | 05.28.08
In L-3 Communications Corp., ASBCA No. 54920 (May 5, 2008), the Armed Services Board of Contract Appeals upheld the challenge to the award of a task order for the development and support of F-15 training devices under a breach of contract theory, finding that the cost evaluation approach used by the Air Force denied L-3 its contractual right to a "fair opportunity to be considered." The Board awarded L-3 its bid and proposal costs, but rejected the claim for lost profits and other damages, finding that L-3 had not proven that, but for the evaluation error, it would have been awarded the contract.

On remand from the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit, the TTAB reconsidered an expert’s opinion about relatedness of goods based on the concept of “umbrella branding” and found that the goods are unrelated and therefore again denied the petition for cancellation.
