         DIGEST

         Where  solicitation advised offerors that agency would make a best buy
         determination based on consideration of, among other things, total cost to the
         agency and offerors' prior experience and past performance, agency reasonably
         concluded that protester's cost advantage of approximately 2 percent was
         outweighed by awardee's experience and highly regarded past performance of the
         precise requirements being competed under this solicitation.
         DECISION

         Gonzales Consulting Services, Inc. (GCS) protests the Bonneville Power
         Administration's (BPA) award of a contract to NSR Information, Inc. (NSRI)
         pursuant to request for offers (RFO) No. 03127 to provide various support services
