Representation and Response
An attorney for GKG declined to comment. The Navy did not immediately respond to requests for comment Friday.
GAO attorneys Todd C. Culliton and Tania Calhoun participated in drafting the decision.
The Navy is represented in-house by Andrew Campos and Erin L. Hernandez.
GKG is represented by Adam A. Bartolanzo, Stephen P. Ramaley, Cash W. Carter and Samara A. Rahman of Miles & Stockbridge PC.
Chugach is represented by Aron C. Beezley, Patrick R. Quigley, Nathaniel J. Greeson, Eugene J. Benick, Winni Zhang, Elizabeth A. Brown, Jenna R. Mazzella and Gabrielle A. Sprio of Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP.
As the dust settles on the Navy $195M GAO Contract suit, the ruling underscores a familiar lesson in federal procurement: when agencies build a defensible record and follow their own rules, the watchdog is unlikely to steer the ship in a different direction.
