When I was young I worked in the defense industry. If I remember correctly, pushing back hard when not winning a contract was not done. I can’t imagine how much this would sour future contracts and future negotiations.

I admit a little bias since I preferred Microsoft winning this contract. I am a very happy Amazon and Google customer, but as a taxpayer I felt better about Microsoft winning this. This is just an opinion that admittedly is not based on any expertise in government procurement of cloud services.
