 KWK Wins the First Postaward Protest Suit in the United States Court of Federal Claims
In late May 1997, we filed a postaward protest suit in the United States Court of Federal Claims for ATA Defense Industries, Incorporated (ATA), seeking to undo an award of a delivery order placed under a Federal Supply Schedule (FSS) contract with a competitor, Caswell International Corporation.
On June 27, 1997, the Court granted ATA's request for an injunction after finding that the award to Caswell was arbitrary, capricious, an abuse of discretion, and not in accordance with law.
While the Court acknowledged that section 1491(b) does not define the term “interested party,” it held that ATA met the definition of that term as used in the GAO, and former GSBCA, case law; that is, ATA was an actual or prospective bidder whose direct economic interest was affected by the award of a contract.
