          DIGEST

          Protest that agency conducted misleading discussions is denied where in conducting
          discussions the agency specifically highlighted the aspects of the protester's
          proposal that the agency found inadequate and there is no evidence that the agency
          misled the protester.

          DECISION

          Logmet LLC, of Round Rock, Texas, protests the award of a contract to Ramcor
          Services Group, Inc., of Tucson, Arizona, under request for proposals (RFP)
          No. HSFLAR-10-R-00006, issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS),
          Federal Law Enforcement Training Center (FLETC), for facilities support services.
          Logmet  contends that the agency provided it with misleading discussions.

          We  deny the protest.

          The RFP, issued on October 1, 2010 as a total small business set aside, sought
          proposals for facilities support services at the FLETC in Artesia, New Mexico. These
          services pertained to logistics, janitorial, facilities maintenance and grounds
          maintenance. The RFP  contemplated a fixed-price contract for a base term with four
          1-year option periods and one 6-month option period. Award was to be made on a
          best-value basis considering six evaluation factors: (Factor 1) method of operation,
          (Factor 2) quality control plan, (Factor 3) management and administration,
          (Factor 4) management personnel qualifications, (Factor 5) past performance, and
