Amend Federal Property and Administrative Svs Act

Allow continued performance of contracting functions up to the point of
contract award as part of any preaward suspension of the delegation of
procurement authority when a protest is filed with the GSBCA.

Legislation should be enacted to amend the Federal Property and
Administrative Services Act to make clear that any suspension as a
result of a preaward protest shall not preclude the agency head from
continuing actions under the procurement that the agency head deems in
the best interests of the United States, up to the point of award of a
contract.
