          Decision

          Matter  of:  Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc.

          File:        B-291769, B-291769.2

          Date:        March 24, 2003

          Michael R. Charness, Esq., and Robert J. Rothwell, Esq., Vinson & Elkins, for the
          protester.
          Captain Anissa N. Parekh, Raymond M. Saunders, Esq., and Matthew Bowman, Esq.,
          Department  of the Army, for the agency.
          Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Michael R. Golden, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
          GAO,  participated in the preparation of the decision.
          DIGEST

          Agency reasonably eliminated protester's proposal from consideration on the basis
          of the proposal's failure to propose adequate staffing levels to perform multiple
          solicitation requirements and the proposal's unacceptable phase-in plan reflecting an
          intent to begin contract performance with a majority of employees who were not
          completely trained and certified to perform all contract requirements.
          DECISION

          Kellogg Brown & Root, Inc. (KBR) protests the Department of the Army's
          determination that KBR's proposal failed to meet the requirements contained in
          request for proposals (RFP) No. DABT23-02-R-0008 to perform unit-level
          maintenance and support functions for vehicles used to conduct training and
          instructional missions at Ft. Knox, Kentucky. KBR challenges the agency's
          determination that KBR's proposed staffing levels were inadequate and that KBR's
          phase-in plan failed to comply with the solicitation requirements.

          We  deny the protest.

          BACKGROUND

          proposals to perform operator- and organizational-level maintenance and support
