          DIGEST

          Agency's elimination of protester's proposal from competition was reasonable where
          protester failed to include pricing for required contract line items.
          DECISION

          LOGMET LLC protests its elimination from the competition under request for
          proposals (RFP) No. W91 1S8-11-0003, issued by the Department of the Army for
          aircraft services. The protester asserts that the agency acted unreasonably in
          eliminating its proposal on the basis that the firm's proposal failed to include pricing
          for several contract line items (CLINs).

          We deny the protest.

          Issued on July 5, 2011 as a set-aside for service-disabled veteran-owned small
          business (SDVOSB) concerns, the RFP's performance work statement (PWS)
          described a variety of aircraft transient alert services and aircraft wash services to be
          provided by the selected contractor at the Joint Base Lewis-McChord Field in the
          State of Washington. The solicited services include: aircraft services management
          functions; aircraft arrival services; aircraft processing services; aircraft departure
          services; aircraft wash and lubrication services; and flight line deicing fluid and wash
          water cleanup services. RFP at 36-52.

          The RFP provided for award of a single fixed-price requirements contract for a base
          period and four 1-year option periods to the responsible offeror who submitted the
          lowest-priced, technically acceptable offer with acceptable or neutral past
          performance. Id. at 139. However, the solicitation cautioned that offers received
