           Decision


           Matter of: C.L.R. Development Group

           File:       B-409398

           Date:       April 11, 2014

           Garrett C. Forester, and J. Scott Hunt, C.L.R. Development Group, for the protester.
           Brian R. Reed, Esq., Department of Veterans Affairs, for the agency.
           Eric M. Ransom, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
           GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
           DIGEST

           1. Protest allegations challenging various amendments to the solicitation, the
           solicitation's award criteria, the conduct of discussions, the evaluation of the
           awardee's location and road access, and the evaluation of the protester's own past
           performance are dismissed where the protester did not timely raise these issues in
           an initial agency protest, or its subsequent protest filed with our Office.

           2. Allegation that the agency misevaluated protester's proposal and made a flawed
           best value award decision is denied where the agency's final evaluation was
           reasonable and consistent with the solicitation and where the tradeoff decision was
           premised on aspects of the evaluation that protester did not otherwise timely
           challenge.

           3. Protest that the awardee's proposal was unacceptable because the awardee
           was not registered in the System for Award Management at the time proposals were
           due, as required by the solicitation, is denied where the awardee was registered at
           the time of award, as provided for by the Federal Acquisition Regulation, and there
           is no basis to conclude that the protester was prejudiced by the agency's apparent
           waiver of the registration provision.
           DECISION

           C.L.R. Development Group (CLR), of St. Charles, Illinois, protests the award of a
           lease to Charles Miller Road, LLC, of Kenosha, Wisconsin, by the Department of
           Veterans Affairs (VA), under request for lease proposal (RLP) No.
           VA69D-12-R-0754, for a community-based outpatient center in McHenry, Illinois.
