MATTER  OF:


Computer Suiences Corporation


   DhEST:


1.  RFP gave some indication, albeit in less than
    precise terms, of greater importance of experience
    over education in evaluation of proposed key
    personnel.  Conclusion is prompted, in part,
    by RFP's provision allowiny offeror to substitute
    experience for edccation and stressing importance
    of suff4ciently varied and lengthy work experience.
    Greater narrative attention in RFP was also paid
    to experience.

2.  Protestingconcern has not taken issue with Navy's
    calculation showing that, if weight is accorded
    subcriteria in manner protester assumed it would be,
    selected concern's first-ranked position
    is not affected.

3.  It is unreasonable to assume that proposals will
    be scored equally when one possesses merit beyond
    minimum requirements specified in negotiated pro-
    curement subject to numerical scoring analysis.

4.  Nothing inconsistent is seen in decision to accord
    greater merit in education area only on basis of
    employee's possession of one bachelor's degree or
    one master's degree. To this extent, greater merit
    was accorded to superior education in same manner
    as superior experience was rewarded.
