DIGEST

1. Agency  reasonably eliminated protester's proposal from award consideration where
the proposal included an incomplete attachment that was required by the solicitation.

2. Protest is denied where agency may, but is not required to, engage in clarifications
with protester to allow protester to submit complete attachment.
DECISION

Alliance Technology Group, LLC, a small business, of Hanover, Maryland, protests that
the Department of Homeland  Security (DHS) unreasonably eliminated the proposal it
submitted in response to request for proposals (RFP) No. 70RTAC21 R00000003,
issued for information technology hardware and software. Alliance asserts that the
agency wrongly eliminated its proposal for failing to complete a required attachment
when  the relevant information was included in its proposal. Alliant further protests that
the agency should have engaged  in clarifications to allow the protester to correct this
clerical error


We  deny the protest.
