         Matter of:   Boreal Aviation Inc.

         File:        B-408189

         Date:       July 17, 2013

         Megan C. Connor, Esq., Jonathan T. Williams, Esq., and Grant D.P. Madden, Esq.,
         PilieroMazza PLLC, for the protester.
         Christopher C. Bouquet, Esq., The Law Office of Christopher C. Bouquet PLLC, for

         proposal than to protester's proposal where agency considered all available past
