         DIGEST

         Agency reasonably rejected proposals for satellite services as unacceptable where
         they did not adequately respond to the specific requirements identified in the
         solicitation.
         DECISION

         Carolina Satellite Network, LLC, of Stuart, Virginia, and Nexagen Networks, Inc., of
         Marlboro, New Jersey, protest the rejection of their proposals under request for
         proposals (RFP) No. QTA-010-CTA-0010, issued by the General Services
         Administration (GSA) for provision of end-to-end solutions for the satellite service
         needs of agencies across the federal government.1 The protesters challenge the
         agency's evaluation of their respective proposals.

         We deny the protests.





         1 End-to-end solutions consist of any combination of fixed or mobile satellite
         services components, and/or services enabling components such as terminals,
         teleports, and terrestrial interface service ports. Contracting Officer's (CO)
         Statement   3; RFP, §§ C.2.2, C.2.4.
