          DIGEST

          Selection of a higher-rated, higher-priced task order proposal is reasonable where
          the selection official found that the awardee's higher technical merit outweighed the
          protester's lower proposed price.
          DECISION

          Archer Western Contractors, Ltd., of Chicago, Illinois, protests the award of a task
          order to Sundt Construction, Inc., of Tucson, Arizona, under request for task order
          proposals (RFP) No. W9126G-08-D-0066, RFP  0006, issued by the Department of the
          Army, Corps of Engineers, for the design and construction of a warriors in transition
          complex at Fort Sill, Oklahoma.' Archer challenges the agency's evaluation of
          technical proposals.

          We deny the protest.





          1 Warriors in transition complexes provide facilities to allow injured or temporarily
          disabled soldiers to live, eat, train, and work together. RFP amend. 3, Statement of
          Work  (SOW), § 011000, ¶ 3.1.
