In this episode of Let’s Get Surety®, the discussion centers on the trends in bid protests at the Government Accountability Office or GAO. Guest Sarah Carpenter, a partner at Smith Currie Oles, delves into the federal bid protest process, including where to file a bid protest and the types of relief one can seek. Sarah also outlines trends that can be seen in the GAO’s report to Congress including a greater than 50 percent effectiveness rate, and common categories or types of bid protests that are outlined in the GAO’s report.
