handle is hein.gao/gaobadbla0001 and id is 1 raw text is: G A 0 Comptroller General Accountability * Integrity * Reliability of the United States United States Government Accountability Office DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE Washington, DC 20548 The decision issued on the date below was subject to a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Decision Matter of: Sherman Plaza, Inc. File: B-402310.6 Date: August 4, 2010 David T. Ralston Jr., Esq., and Frank Murray, Esq., Foley & Lardner LLP, for the protester. Scott Arnold, Esq., and Pablo Nichols, Esq., Dickstein Shapiro LLP, for FCS Partners, LLC, the intervenor. Peter S. Kraemer, Esq., Department of Veterans Affairs, for the agency. Paula A. Williams, Esq., and Sharon L. Larkin, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that agency's evaluation and selection decision were flawed is denied where the record shows that both the evaluation and the resulting selection decision were reasonable and consistent with the solicitation's evaluation factors. 2. Where during the course of corrective action the agency called for submission of final revised offers and expressly advised offerors that it would not conduct clarifications, negotiations, or discussions, protest that agency should have conducted discussions is essentially an untimely challenge to the terms of the amended solicitation. DECISION Sherman Plaza, Inc., of Madison, Wisconsin, protests the award of a lease by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) to FCS Partners, LLC, of Middleton, Wisconsin, under solicitation for offers (SFO) No. VA-101-09-RP-0064, for office space to be occupied by the VA's Consolidated Patient Account Center (CPAC). Sherman contends that the VA made various errors in the evaluation of offers and in the subsequent selection decision. We deny the protest.
