It then categorizes and analyzes the past performance protest decisions handed down from the Comptroller General from July 1, 2000 to September 30, 2001 as well as the rulings handed down by the Court of Federal Claims from February 1, 1997 to September 30, 2001. Following the review and analysis, the interpretations of the statutory requirements by the Comptroller General and the Courts are examined to determine if they allow acquisition professionals more or less discretion in carrying out the tasks required to conduct fair and reasonable procurements. It also examines protest decision trends to determine what changes are needed to mitigate the risk of past performance information claims and protests.
