                    deficiency did not result  A award that otherwise would
                    not have been made, and since various other contentions
                    made by protester do not warrant modification of decision.


                    The protester hans requested reconsideration of: h)e ,decision

              ety of that agency's evaluation of proposed prices for rental and
              macittitenance of specified types Lind quantities of Remote Job Entry
              Tenrinals.

                    The solicitation required oni-callk remedial maintenance
              during,teg'ular working hours, and further provided that for
              terminal types 1, II, and V$ on-call maintenance was required,
              24 hours per dayo 7 days per week. ,-The protester's,offer con-
        .tained lump sum monthly rental and ainrtenance figures for the

              lump Sum mon'thly figures and a statemant ttht it would charge
              $125 per call for all maintenance calls o'utside regular working

              for the submission of total monthly charg% s for all equipment
              rental and maintenance, and that since the protester's price
              included all 1 required maintenance while th6 successful offeror's
              prices fatted to include the cost of non-PP.M calla$ proposals
