handle is hein.gao/gaobadqqm0001 and id is 1 raw text is: SG A O Comptroller General Accountability * Integrity * Reliability of the United States United States Government Accountability Office Washington, DC 20548 Decision Matter of: Glen/Mar Construction, Inc. File: B-410023 Date: October 10, 2014 Andy Brown for the protester. Cecily Chambliss, Esq., Department of Veterans Affairs, for the agency. Lois Hanshaw, Esq., Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Christina Sklarew, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging agency's evaluation of protester's past performance and technical approach is denied where the agency's evaluation was reasonable and in accordance with the solicitation's evaluation criteria. DECISION Glen/Mar Construction, Inc. (Glen/Mar) of Clackamas, Oregon, protests the exclusion of its proposal from the competitive range by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) under request for proposals (RFP) VA-1 01-1 4-R-0074 for the construction of columbarium expansion and cemetery improvements at the National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific (NMCP) in Honolulu, Hawaii. Glen/Mar argues that it was not required to provide past performance information for subcontractors and that the agency should have assigned higher ratings to its proposal.' We deny the protest. 1 Our Office did not issue a protective order in connection with this protest because Glen/Mar elected not to retain counsel who could receive access to nonpublic information pursuant to the terms of a protective order. Accordingly, our discussion is necessarily general in nature to avoid reference to nonpublic information. Our conclusions, however, are based on our review of the entire record, including nonpublic information provided by the agency to our Office.
