Counsel for companies engaged in bid protests over U.S. federal government contracts often wish their clients had done things differently during the proposal preparation and evaluation process.
Unfortunately, the strictures of the protest forum’s protective order prohibit counsel from sharing many of these lessons in the context of an actual procurement.
