GAO opinion in LOGCAP case now due Sept. 18

The Government Accountability Office will now have until Sept. 18 to submit its "advisory opinion" on the LOGCAP V program.

According to an order filed in the U.S. Court of Federal Claims earlier this month, GAO on Sept. 3 contacted the court to seek an extension.

"For good cause shown, the Court hereby grants the extension of time," the order reads. "Accordingly, GAO shall file its Advisory Opinion on or before September 18, 2019."

GAO was previously told to file its advisory opinion by Sept. 4.

The opinion was sought by AECOM, which unsuccessfully bid on the Army's LOGCAP V initiative. AECOM's protest with GAO was dismissed last month after DynCorp, whose protest had been unsuccessful, took the case to federal court.
