          DIGEST

          Challenge to evaluation of protester's proposal under experience factor is denied
          where  the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the
          solicitation.
          DECISION

          Moura's Cleaning Service, Inc. (MCSI), of Hudson, Massachusetts, protests the award
          of a contract to Cova Services, Inc., of San Diego, California, by the General Services
          Administration (GSA) under solicitation No. GS-09P-10-KSD-0021, for custodial,
          grounds maintenance, and related services at the Otay Mesa Land Port of Entry
          (LPOE)  in San Diego, California.

          We  deny the protest.

          GSA  issued the solicitation on February 26, 2010, for the purpose of obtaining
          janitorial and grounds maintenance services at the Otay Mesa LPOE. GSA
          subsequently issued three amendments to the solicitation. Sixteen proposals were
          received in response to the solicitation, including proposals from MCSI and Cova.

          The solicitation stated that award would be made to the offeror whose proposal was
          determined to be most advantageous to the government, price and other factors
          considered. The solicitation also advised that price was significantly less important
          than the two stated technical factors, experience and past performance. Between
          the two technical factors, experience was significantly more important than past
          performance.
