handle is hein.gao/gaobadbwd0001 and id is 1 raw text is: G A O 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: Ahtna Facility Services, Inc. File: B-404913; B-404913.2 Date: June 30, 2011 Robert K. Tompkins, Esq., Elizabeth M. Gill, Esq., and Joshua Clause, Esq., Patton Boggs LLP, for the protester. Erica S. Beardsley, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Sharon L. Larkin, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Agency reasonably determined that protester's proposal contained multiple deficiencies and significant weaknesses that rendered the proposal technically unacceptable, and properly excluded the proposal from the competitive range. 2. Agency's discussions with protester were meaningful where they reasonably led protester into the areas of its proposal that reflected deficiencies and significant weaknesses. DECISION Ahtna Facility Services, Inc. (AFSI), of Anchorage, Alaska, protests the Department of the Army's exclusion of AFSI's proposal from the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP) No. W81K04-1 1-R-0005 to provide healthcare environmental services for the San Antonio Military Medical Center-North (SAMMC-N) and other medical facilities at or around Fort Sam Houston, Texas. AFSI protests the agency's determination that AFSI's proposal was technically unacceptable, further maintaining that the agency improperly excluded AFSI's proposal from the competitive range, that the agency's discussions were inadequate, and that the agency was biased in its conduct of this procurement. We deny the protest.
