Summary

People who are allowed under agency rules can get or share information. Contractors can share their own bids, cancelled procurements can be discussed unless the agency plans to restart them, and one-on-one meetings with offerors are allowed so long as protected bid or source-selection information isn’t improperly shared. Information cannot be kept from Congress, congressional committees, the Comptroller General, a federal agency, or an agency inspector general. The Comptroller General may get information during a contract protest. Other laws’ requirements, penalties, and remedies still apply.
