           DIGEST

           Protest challenging evaluation of the protester's proposal under the experience
           factor is denied where the evaluation was reasonable and in accordance with the
           solicitation's evaluation criteria.
           DECISION

           A&D General Contracting, Inc., of San Diego, California, protests the Department of
           the Navy's evaluation of its proposal under Phase I of the competition under request
           for proposals (RFP) No. N62478-12-R-4000, for construction services in Hawaii.
           The protester asserts that the agency unreasonably evaluated A&D's proposal as
           unacceptable under the experience factor.

           We deny the protest.

           BACKGROUND

           The solicitation, a small business set-aside, sought proposals for the award of
           multiple indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts for new construction,
           repair, alteration, and related demolition of existing infrastructure. The total
           maximum value of the acquisition is $240 million for all contracts, with task order
           minimums and maximums of $3 million and $30 million respectively. Under Phase I
           of the competition, the government was to select a maximum of 10 offerors to
           compete in Phase II, based on an evaluation of four factors: (1) technical approach,
           (2) experience, (3) past performance, and (4) safety. Any proposal found to have a
           deficiency in meeting the stated evaluation requirements or performance objectives
           was to be considered ineligible for award. RFP at 4.
