Champion's claim that it was improperly invited to make
an oral presentation is not a challenge to a
solicitation or other request for offers, the
cancellation of such a solicitation or other request, an
award or proposed award of a contract, or the
termination of a contract based on improprieties in the
award of the contract. It therefore does not come
within the scope of our bid protest jurisdiction.
31 U.S.C. §§ 3551(1), 3552; 4 C.F.R. §
21.1(a). We recognize that we have previously
considered a protester's assertion that its proposal
should not have been included in the competitive range.
See, e.g., Global Indus. Servs., Inc.,
B-260287.2, July 18, 1995, 95-2 CPD ¶ 27 at 2; Avondale
Tech. Servs., Inc., B-243330, July 18, 1991,
91-2 CPD ¶ 72 at 3. To the extent that
those prior decisions are inconsistent with our ruling
here, we will no longer follow our prior decisions in
this regard. (Champion Business Services, Inc., B-290556, June 25, 2002)
