           Fredrick V. Garcia for the protester.
           Capt. Ronald D. Sullivan, LTC Thomas L. Hong, and Capt. Dan DiPaola, Department
           of the Army, for the agency.

           DIGEST

           Protest that, in connection with the private-sector competition component of an
           Office of Management and Budget Circular A-76 commercial activities study,
           contracting agency unreasonably evaluated the protester's proposal as technically
           unacceptable is denied where the record shows that the agency's evaluation was
           reasonable and consistent with the solicitation's stated evaluation criteria.
           DECISION

           Systems Research Group, Inc. (SRG) protests the Department of the Army's
           determination that its proposal to perform selected requirements at the Army's
           Directorate of Information Management at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, was
           technically unacceptable. SRG's proposal responded to request for proposals (RFP)
           No. DABT60-01-R-3024, which the Army issued in connection with an Office of
           Management  and Budget (OMB) Circular A-76 commercial activities study.

           We deny the protest.

           The Army issued this solicitation on January 16, 2002 to select a commercial offeror
           to compete against the government's in-house most efficient organization (MEO)
           pursuant to the procedures of the OMB Circular A-76 cost comparison process. The


           'The procedures for determining whether the government should perform an activity
           in-house, or have the activity performed by a contractor, are set forth in Circular
           A-76 and the Circular's Revised Supplemental Handbook. This protest concerns the
                                                                           (continued...)
