handle is hein.gao/gaobadofv0001 and id is 1 raw text is: J G A Comptroller General Accountability * Integrity * Reliability of the United States United States Government Accountability Office DOCUMENTFoR-PUBICRELEASE 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: Cybermedia Technologies, Inc. File: B-405511.3 Date: September 22, 2011 William W. Goodrich, Jr., Esq., Judith B. Kassel, Esq., and Patrick R. Quigley, Esq., Arent Fox LLP, for the protester. Maj. John C. Dohn, II, Department of the Army, for the agency. Paul N. Wengert, Esq., Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Sharon L. Larkin, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest that an agency improperly decided to award only eight contracts, rather than nine, after concluding that eight awards would meet the agency's projected needs, and after identifying natural breaks between offerors' evaluated prices, is dismissed for failure to state a valid basis of protest where the solicitation provided only for multiple awards to the lowest-priced technically acceptable offerors, and did not set limits on the agency's judgment in deciding how many contracts to award. DECISION Cybermedia Technologies, Inc., doing business as CTEC, of Reston, Virginia, a small business, protests the award of contracts to eight firms1 by the Department of the Army under request for proposals (RFP) No. W911 SO-11 -R-001 1 for training services to support the distributed learning program at the Army Training and Doctrine Command schools. CTEC argues that the Army improperly awarded only eight contracts, and should have awarded a ninth contract to CTEC. 1 The eight awardees are The Cogar Group, LTD, of Burke, Virginia; KeyBridge Technologies, Inc., of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma; Craig Technical Consulting Inc., doing business as Craig Technologies, of Melbourne, Florida; Information Experts, Inc., of Reston, Virginia; Delan Associates, Inc., of Freeport, New York; Nangwik Services, LLC, of Jacksonville, Florida; The Angelo Group, Inc., of Martinez, Georgia; and Akima Infrastructure Services LLC, of Anchorage, Alaska.
