Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States Decision Matter of: Chenega Federal Systems, LLC File: B-414478 Date: June 26, 2017 Kenneth A. Martin, Esq., The Martin Law Firm, PLLC, for the protester. Captain Justin D. Haselden, and Alexis J. Bernstein, Esq., Department of the Air Force, for the agency. Katherine I. Riback, Esq., and Amy B. Pereira, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest challenging the agency's use of a lowest-priced, technically-acceptable evaluation scheme is denied where the record shows that the agency reasonably exercised its judgment in establishing the solicitation's source selection methodology. 2. Protest challenging solicitation provisions as favoring the incumbent is denied where there no evidence of preferential treatment or other improper action. DECISION Chenega Federal Systems, LLC, of Lorton, Virginia, protests the terms of request for proposals (RFP) No. FA4890-16-R-0040, issued by the Department of the Air Force, to provide the Air Force's 57th Wing aircrew training and courseware development. The protester challenges the Air Force's use of a lowest-priced, technically-acceptable (LPTA) evaluation scheme to obtain the required services, as well as a number of the solicitation provisions that the protester contends were drafted in a manner that favors the incumbent. Chenaga also challenges a number of solicitation provisions as vague and undefined, and claims that this vagueness prevents offerors from competing on a common basis. We deny the protest. BACKGROUND The solicitation was issued on January 25, 2017, as a small business set-aside. The RFP contemplates the award of a fixed-priced contract with separate line items for cost
