Phil, I was looking at the fbo website, and saw a bid for a Powerboss pressure washer. That was the only acceptable model. How do you get around that one?
I would protest the specifications as being too restrictive, that they need to allow other equal systems to promote fair and open competition. I would include a copy of the spec for the specified machine along with a spec for my comparable unit, and then request that the sole source requirement be removed.Phil, I was looking at the fbo website, and saw a bid for a Powerboss pressure washer.

seems like the Navy would want a WATER DRAGON Scott....L@L
Well, that's BS, the Navy has units from virtually all manufacturers. If they denied my protest, I'd file a protest with the GAO.What if they continue, because the spec claims that is the only model approved for use on Naval vessels? Sounds really screwy to me, like someone had their friend specially approve the equipment.
