          Decision

          Matter  of:  Chapman  Law Firm, LPA

          File:        B-293105.6, B-293105.10, B-293105.12

          Date:        November  15, 2004

          James S. DelSordo, Esq., Halloran & Sage, for the protester.
          Alfred C. Moran, Esq., for Harrington Moran Barksdale, Inc., an intervenor.
          Carolyn Fiume, Esq., Department of Housing & Urban Development, for the agency.
          Mary G. Curcio, Esq., and John M. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO,
          participated in the preparation of the decision.
          DIGEST

          1. Protest that agency misled protester during discussions into believing that its
          responses had adequately addressed identified weaknesses and deficiencies is
          denied where record shows that agency neither indicated to protester that its
          responses to discussion questions resolved agency's concerns, nor otherwise
          indicated that protester could not further address those concerns in its final proposal
          revision.

          2. Protest that agency's evaluation improperly failed to credit protester for proposed
          subcontractor's experience is denied where subcontractor was removed from
          management  position in protester's final proposal revision.

          3. Protest that agency incorrectly averaged adjectival ratings for individual
          evaluation factors in determining overall adjectival rating for protester's technical
          proposal is denied, since record shows that award decision was based, not on
          adjectival ratings, but on relative advantages and disadvantages of protester's and
          awardee's proposals.
          DECISION
