Sunday 16/12/2018 - Source: Airline news


Boeing Co on Monday filed a protest with the
Government Accountability Office about a $1.1 billion contract for
next-generation weather satellites won by Lockheed Martin Corp on Dec. 2, a
company spokeswoman said.
"Based on the information that we received, we felt that we had a
superior product under the disclosed evaluation criteria," Boeing spokeswoman
Diana Ball told Reuters.
The contract, awarded by NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric
Administration (NOAA), calls for Lockheed to build two Geostationary Operational
Environmental Satellite R-Series, known as GOES-R, and includes options for two
additional spacecraft.
