Matter of: Raytheon Company, Space and Airborne Systems File: B-411631 Date: September 16, 2015 Stuart W. Turner, Esq., Mark D. Colley, Esq., Emma V. Broomfield, Esq., and Dominique L. Casimir, Esq., Arnold & Porter LLP, and Sharon S. Jones, Esq., Raytheon Co., for the protester. Jonathan J. Frankel, Esq., Karla J. Letsche, Esq., John P. Janecek, Esq., Craig LaChance, Esq., and Brett Sander, Esq., Frankel PLLC, and William J. Colwell, Esq., Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, for the intervenor. Debra J. Talley, Esq., Jennifer Ivanowski, Esq., and Daniel R. Wilmoth, Esq., Department of the Army, 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. Agency's discussions with the protester were meaningful where they led the protester into the areas of its proposal that required revision. 2. Protest that agency's technical evaluation was unequal and unreasonable is denied where the record demonstrates that differences in the proposals supported differing evaluation results. DECISION Raytheon Company, Space and Airborne Systems, of El Segundo, California, protests the issuance of a task order to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, of Linthicum, Maryland, by the Department of the Army, under request for task order execution plan (RTEP) No. R2-3G-0823, issued to holders of the Army's Rapid Response-Third Generation multiple-award contract, for the purpose of prototyping, designing, integrating and testing a Synthetic Aperture Radar/Ground Moving Target Indicator (SAR/GMTI) long range radar. Raytheon alleges that the Army's technical evaluation was unreasonable, principally because the Army conducted inadequate and misleading discussions. We deny the protest.
