Maj. Christine C. Fontenelle, Department of the Army, for the agency. Katherine I. Riback, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. Agency acted reasonably and in a manner consistent with the solicitation when it considered past performance evaluations from references for contracts not mentioned in the vendors' quotations, but found on a Department of Defense database. DECISION Al Procurement JVD (Al), of Miami, Florida, a joint venture of Al Procurement, LLC and Satellite Janitorial Company Inc., protests the award of a contract to HamHed LLC, of New Albany, Indiana, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. W91 ISA- 11-T- 0059, issued by the Departament of the Army for custodial services. Al protests the evaluation of its proposal and the selection of HamHed's higher-priced, higher-rated proposal for award. We deny the protest. The RFQ, issued December 23, 2010, as a service-disabled, veteran-owned, small business (SDVOSB) set-aside. The RFQ provided that award would be made to the offeror whose proposal was determined to represent the best value to the government, price and past performance considered. The past performance factor was more important than price. The RFQ stated that the agency, in its past performance evaluation, would consider the information provided in the past performance survey responses from evaluating agencies on similar (scope and work) contracts referenced by the vendor in its quotation, information gathered from the Past Performance Information Retrieval
