A protester may challenge an agency's decision not to provide the protester with a solicitation for a purchase under the Federal Supply Schedule, where this decision was based upon the agency's determination, pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation S: 8.404(b)(3) (which applies to orders expected to exceed the maximum order threshold), that the protester did not appear to offer best value, as determined by the agency from market information obtained from schedule vendors and product demonstrations; GAO will review the reasonableness of the agency's determination. 2. Agency decision not to provide the protester with a solicitation for an acquisition of a unified financial management system under the Federal Supply Schedule program was reasonable, where, in accordance with Federal Acquisition Regulation S: 8.404(b)(3), the agency reasonably determined that the protester did not appear to offer best value (price and other factors considered) when compared to schedule vendors that were provided with the solicitation. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-292046/html/GAOREPORTS-B-292046.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-292046/pdf/GAOREPORTS-B-292046.pdf GAO/B-292046 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-B-292046 Comptroller General Decision GAO/B-292046; Savantage Financial Services, Inc., B-292046; B-292046.2, June 11, 2003;
