           Matter of. Honeywell Technology Solutions, Inc.

           File:       B-406036

           Date:       January 3, 2012

           Kevin C. Dwyer, Esq., Daniel E. Chudd, Esq., and Ethan E. Marsh, Esq., Jenner &
           Block LLP, for the protester.
           Thomas J. Madden, Esq., Paul A. Debolt, Esq., and James Y. Boland, Esq.,
           Venable LLP, for Textron, Inc., the intervenor.
           Capt. Travis P. Sommer and John E. Wagner, Esq., Department of the Army, for the
           agency.
           Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Sharon L. Larkin, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
           GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
           DIGEST

           1. Protest challenging a source selection authority's (SSA) disagreement with past
           performance evaluation rating assigned by lower level evaluators is denied where
           SSA's rationale was reasonable, consistent with the evaluation criteria, and
           documented.

           2. Protest challenging evaluation of protester's history of meeting small business
           performance goals is denied, where agency reasonably concluded that there was a
           risk the protester would not meet the established goals.

           3. In evaluating protester's proposal as good, rather than excellent, under the small
           business participation evaluation factor, agency was not required to conduct
           discussions regarding data that protester provided.
           DECISION

           Honeywell Technology Solutions, Inc., of Columbia, Maryland, protests the award of
           a contract to Textron, Inc., of New Orleans, Louisiana, by the Department of the
           Army under request or proposals (RFP) No. W56HZV-10-R-0562 for repair and
           refurbishment of M1117 armored security vehicles (ASV). Honeywell challenges the
           evaluation of proposals and source selection decision.


We deny the protest.
