        Federal  Systems Group, Inc. protested the Department of the
   Air Force's  exclusion from the  competitive range of  the firm's
   proposal to  furnish the  agency with  an automated,  integrated,
   multi-function Library Automated System.  
 
        The protest was filed on September 29, 1992.  On October 19,
   following  each party's  provision  of  responses  to  the  other
   party's written discovery  requests, protester filed a  motion to
   dismiss the case with prejudice to its reinstatement.  The motion
   states simply, "The above Protest  has been settled to the mutual
   satisfaction of  both parties."  The Air Force has informed us by
   phone that it has no objection to our granting the motion.
 
        The protest is  DISMISSED WITH PREJUDICE.  Rule  28(a).  The
   Board's unopposed  order  suspending the  agency's  authority  to
   proceed with  the procurement lapses  with the  issuance of  this
   order.
