Bid Protest Filings by Email
- GAO will now accept bid protest-related filings sent by email, to Protests@gao.gov.
On our receipt of your emailed protest, you will be sent an automatic confirming reply, advising that a file number and attorney will be assigned to the matter shortly and that it will be processed in accordance with our Bid Protest Regulations, 4 C.
