AWS objection argues DoD’s corrective action plan doesn’t go far enough, and that it should be forced to reopen and reconsider multiple aspects of the contract.

Judge Patricia E. Campbell-Smith would need to approve the request, but DoD says it now wants to spend the next four months reconsidering the portion of the JEDI contract she has already found to be faulty.

Judge Patricia E. Campbell-Smith’s ruling came down to narrow issues of how DoD evaluated Amazon and Microsoft’s proposals. Amazon’s claims of improper interference by President Trump were not a factor.

In today’s Federal Newscast, the American Federation of Government Employees is bashing a White House proposal to cut funding and staff at the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
