This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Venture Productions File: B-280872.2; B-280872.3 Date: December 9, 1998 Andrew J. Mohr, Esq., and John J. O'Brien, Esq., Cohen Mohr, for the protester. Jed. L. Babbin, Esq., and Sharon L. Babbin, Esq., Tighe, Patton, Tabackman & Babbin, for Film House, Inc., an intervenor. Mary E. Clark, Esq., Defense Logistics Agency, for the agency. Ralph 0. White, Esq., and Christine S. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging agency assessment of past performance is denied where the record shows that the evaluators performed a reasonable assessment of proposals in accordance with the solicitation's evaluation scheme, and did not deviate from the solicitation's scheme by using a past performance rating plan different from the rating plan used for the other evaluation factors. DECISION Venture Productions protests the award of a contract to Film House, Inc. by the Television-Audio Support Activity, Defense Logistics Agency, pursuant to request for proposals (RFP) No. MDA113-97-R-0018, issued to purchase creative development, scripting, and production services associated with brief informational radio and television segments, known as spot announcements, for use by the Armed Forces Radio and Television Service (AFRTS). Venture argues that the agency's evaluation of past performance was unreasonable. We deny the protest. The RFP, issued on February 5, 1998, anticipates award of a 1-year indefinite-delivery, indefinite -quantity contract with four 1-year option periods, to the offeror whose proposal represents the best value to the government. The RFP sets forth five evaluation factors: (1) organizational experience; (2) organizational past performance; (3) ability as demonstrated by samples of recent spot announcements; (4) ability as demonstrated by a creative proposal for two mock spot announcements; and (5) price proposal for the mock spot announcements. RFP, amend. 0001, § M.2.
