</p><p>Filing a timely protest is only part of the battle. The protester needs to have a winning issue in order to reverse an award decision. It's often hard to recognize the issues that make a winning protest. The course will walk you through the best and worst grounds to raise when you pursue a protest. The course will discuss:
</p><ul><li>The key distinction between winning and losing protest grounds.
</li><li>Why the protest issues that are most important to a vendor are usually the weakest grounds of protest.
</li><li> The role of agency discretion--and how to avoid the trap of protesting proposal evaluations that agencies usually win.
</li><li> Understanding the difference between stupid and illegal--and why it matters to a successful protest.
</li><li> Where to look for winning issues.</li></ul>
<p>The course will also discuss the relief that is available to a successful protester, including collection of protest costs and attorney fees. The course will show you how the type of issue that you raise determines what you get if you win. </p>
