           Matter  of:  Infrastructure Defense Technologies

           File:        B-401860.2; B-401860.3

           Date:       July 27, 2010

           Terrence M. O'Connor, Esq., and Stephanie D. Wilson, Esq., Albo & Oblon LLP, for
           the protester.
           Douglas C. Proxmire, Esq., and Elizabeth M. Gill, Esq., Patton Boggs LLP, for Hesco
           Bastion, Ltd., an intervenor.
           Linda G. Sandoli, Esq., Defense Logistics Agency, for the agency.
           Charles W. Morrow, Esq., and Jonathan L. Kang, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
           GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
           DIGEST

           1. Corrective action taken in response to a prior protest is not objectionable where
           the agency took this action to address legitimate concerns raised by the protester
           concerning the propriety of the prior award.

           2. Agency's evaluation of the protester's and the awardee's technical proposals was
           reasonable and supports the agency's conclusion that the protester's slight technical
           advantage was not worth its higher proposed price.
           DECISION

           Infrastructure Defense Technologies (IDT), of Belvidere, Illinois, protests the award
           of a contract to Hesco Bastion, Ltd., of Leeds, United Kingdom, under request for
           proposals (RFP) No. SPM8E6-08-R-0061, issued by the Defense Logistics Agency
           (DLA), Defense Supply Center Philadelphia (DSCP), for expeditionary earth-filled
           protective barriers. IDT challenges the agency's corrective action in response to an
           earlier protest, and the agency's evaluation of the offerors' proposals and past
           performance.


We  deny the protest.
