          DIGEST

          Protest that agency improperly evaluated as unacceptable the protester's proposal
          for the installation of photovoltaic carport systems is denied where the protester's
          technical proposal included a concept drawing required by the solicitation that
          contained information that did not comply with the specifications and was otherwise
          incomplete.
          DECISION

          Douglass Colony/Kenny Solar, Joint Venture of Commerce City, Colorado, protests
          the award of a contract to E Light/Centerre, Joint Venture, LLC, of Denver, Colorado.
          under request for proposals (RFP) No. GS-08P-10-JA-C-0016, issued by the General
          Services Administration (GSA), for grid tied, ground mounted carport photovoltaic
          (PV) systems. Douglass/Kenny contends that its proposal was evaluated improperly
          and that the award selection was unreasonable.

          We deny the protest.

          The RFP, issued on January 29, 2010, as a small business set-aside, sought fixed-price
          proposals to install the PV systems at the Denver Federal Center, Lakewood,
          Colorado. The statement of work (SOW) required the contractor to provide a
          turnkey project, including design and installation of a ground mounted PV system,
          which had various specified characteristics and met all SOW requirements. The
          minimum  capacity of the PV areas is required to be 4,115,000 kilowatt hours per year.
