DEPARTMENT OF THE AIR FORCE May 2, 2012 Commercial Law & Litigation Directorate (AFLOA/JAQ) 1500 W. Perimeter Road, Suite 1780 Joint Base Andrews, MD 20762 Ms. Paula A. Williams, Esq. Senior Attorney Office of the General Counsel U.S. Government Accountability Office 441 G Street NW Washington, DC 20548 Subject: Protest Notice of Corrective Action B-406616 Dear Ms. Williams: The Air Force has determined that it will take corrective action in this matter. Specifically, the Air Force will terminate the award to Cummins, cancel the solicitation (RFQ No. FA5706-12-Q-0017), and reconsider its requirements. The Agency considers the foregoing to be corrective action in response to the abovereferenced protest and, as such, this corrective action renders SMI’s protest academic or moot. Therefore, the Air Force respectfully requests that the GAO dismiss the protest. See, e.g., East West Research, Inc. – Recon., B-233623.2, Apr. 14, 1989, 89-1 CPD ¶ 179 at 1-2; Steel Circle Bldg., Co., B-233055, B-233056, Feb. 10, 1989, 89-1 CPD ¶ 139 at 2; Dyna-Air Eng’g Corp., B278037, Nov. 7, 1997, 97-2 CPD ¶ 132. Sincerely, MARK S. TESKEY, Colonel, USAF Director, Commercial Law & Litigation Directorate SEAN ELAMETO, Major, USAF Trial Attorney Commercial law & Litigation Directorate
