Deloitte protest leads to $250M Navy award

Deloitte Consulting’s protest of a $250 million Navy contract to modernize management of its weapons and ordinance supply chain has paid off as the Navy added the company to the three other companies that won spots originally.

After McKinsey & Co., BCG Federal, and Grant Thornton won the contract with the Fleet Logistics Center in Norfolk, Virginia, Deloitte filed its protest challenging the evaluation process the Navy used.

After seeing Deloitte’s challenge, the Navy agreed to take a second look at Deloitte’s evaluation. That second look led the Navy to add Deloitte to the contract.

The four companies will not compete for task orders for strategic services to help transform logistics operations, supply chain, and technology across the enterprise.

The contract runs through March 2027 if all options are exercised.
