Not affiliated with the U.S. government, GSA, or SAM.gov. Not a U.S. government service. GAO bid protest history for a federal solicitation number. Returns every published GAO protest decision tied to the solicitation, each protest's outcome (sustained, denied, dismissed, withdrawn), and a risk level: HIGH means a sustained protest on record within the last 120 days; MEDIUM means protest activity within 120 days; LOW means older history only; UNKNOWN means protest data is not loaded; CLEAR means no protests found. This corpus holds GAO decisions only - it cannot tell you whether a procurement is currently frozen by a pending protest. GAO FY2025: 1,737 cases closed, only 53 sustained (most resolved via corrective action, not sustain). Agency-level protests and Court of Federal Claims cases are NOT in this corpus - they are separate dockets. GAO decisions are public-domain U.S. government works and are recommendations, not binding law. GAO does not publish most dismissals and protests filed but not yet decided are not included, so verify status against the GAO bid protest docket before acting. Follow-ups within 30 minutes after a search ride free (up to 30 per search); otherwise one accepted call counts as one use, regardless of how many records are returned. Every record carries a direct source link (or source name and record ID) so you can verify and cite the underlying record.
