The Ombudsman Program for Agency Protests (OPAP) was�established to investigate agency protest issues and resolve them without expensive and timeconsuming litigation. OPAP is an independent reviewing authority that is empowered to grant a�prevailing protester essentially the same relief as the Government Accountability Office (GAO).�Interested parties are encouraged to seek resolution of their concerns within the USCG as an�Alternative Dispute Resolution (ADR) forum rather than filing a protest with the GAO or some�external forum. Interested parties may seek resolution of their concerns informally or opt to file a� formal agency protest with the Contracting Officer or Ombudsman.� Informal Forum with the Ombudsman. Interested parties who believe a specific USCG�procurement is unfair or otherwise defective should first direct their concerns to the applicable�Contracting Officer. If the Contracting Officer is unable to satisfy their concerns, interested�parties are encouraged to contact the U.S. Coast Guard Ombudsman for Agency Protests. Under�this informal process the agency is not required to suspend contract award performance. Use of�an informal forum does not suspend any time requirement for filing a protest with the agency or�other forum. In order to ensure a timely response, interested parties should provide the following�information to the Ombudsman: solicitation/contract number, contracting office, Contracting� Officer, and solicitation closing date (if applicable).� Formal Agency Protest with the Ombudsman. Prior to submitting a formal agency protest,�protesters must first use their best efforts to resolve their concerns with the Contracting Officer�through open and frank discussions. If the protester�s concerns are unresolved, an Independent�Review is available by the Ombudsman. The protester may file a formal agency protest to either�the Contracting Officer or as an alternative to that, the Ombudsman under the OPAP program.�Contract award or performance will be suspended during the protest period unless contract award�or performance is justified, in writing, for urgent and compelling reasons or is determined in�writing to be in the best interest of the Government. The agency�s goal is to resolve protests in�less than 35 calendar days from the date of filing. Protests shall include the information set forth�in FAR 33.103(d) (2). If the protester fails to submit the required information, resolution of the�protest may be delayed, or the protest may be dismissed. To be timely protests must be filed�within the period specified in FAR 33.103(e). Formal protests filed under the OPAP program�should be submitted electronically to OPAP@uscg.mil and the Contracting Officer or by hand�delivery to the Contracting Officer.� Election of Forum. After an interested party protests a Coast Guard procurement to the�Contracting Officer or the Ombudsman, and while the protest is pending, the protester agrees not�to file a protest with the GAO or other external forum. If the protest is filed with an external�forum, the agency protest will be dismissed.
