The U.S. Government Accountability Office's recently issued annual bid protest report is noteworthy because it shows that 31% of bid protests were sustained — more than double the rate for prior years— and that protesters received some form of relief from the procuring agency in more than half of the protests filed with the GAO in fiscal year 2023.
In addition, the report shows that the number of GAO bid protest filings increased by 22% in fiscal year 2023 after a multiyear period of decline.
