To be timely, the protests must be filed with the periods specified in FAR 33.103. To file a protest under the NG Agency Protest Program, the protest must request resolution under that program and be sent to the address below:

National Guard Bureau Office of the Director of Acquisitions/ Head of Contracting Activity

ATTN: NGB-AQ-O

111 S. George Mason Dr.

Arlington, VA 22204 Email: ng.ncr.ngb-arng.mbx.ngb-task-order-ombudsman@army.mil
