Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to Decision a GAO Protective Order. The entire decision has been approved for public release. Matter of: Alion Science & Technology Corporation File: B-422664 Date: September 10, 2024 Kenneth B. Weckstein, Esq., and Andrew C. Crawford, Esq., Brown Rudnick LLP, for the protester. J. Scott Hommer, III, Esq., Rebecca E. Pearson, Esq., Christopher G. Griesedieck, Jr., Esq., and David L.W. Smith, Esq., Venable, LLP, for Peraton, Inc.; Kara M. Sacilotto, Esq., W. Benjamin Phillips, III, Esq., and Jonathan C. Clark, Esq., Wiley Rein LLP, for Booz Allen Hamilton Inc., the intervenors. Judith L. Richardson, Esq., Department of Defense, for the agency. April Y. Shields, Esq., and Christina Sklarew, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging the agency's cost evaluation and rejection of protester's proposal is denied where the protester's proposal had inconsistencies between the cost narrative and cost spreadsheet, and the agency reasonably concluded that the protester's proposal failed to comply with the terms of the solicitation and that a most probable cost could not be determined. DECISION Alion Science and Technology Corporation (Alion) of McLean, Virginia, protests the Department of Defense, Defense Threat Reduction Agency's (DTRA) decision not to award it an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract under request for proposals (RFP) No. HDTRA122ROO09. The agency awarded ten IDIQ contracts under the RFP for various support services for combatting weapons of mass destruction. The protester argues that the agency's decision to reject its proposal was unreasonable and, alternatively, the agency should have provided an opportunity for Alion to fix its proposal. We deny the protest.
