          DIGEST

          Protest challenging an agency's evaluation of quotations and selection decision is
          denied where the record shows that the agency's evaluation and issuance of a task
          order was reasonable and consistent with the terms of the solicitation.
          DECISION

          Phacil Inc., of Arlington, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order to Vistronix,
          Inc., of Reston, Virginia, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. AG-3144-S-12-
          0003, issued by the Department of Agriculture for information technology support
          services.1 Phacil challenges the agency's evaluation of quotations and source
          selection decision.

          We deny the protest.



          1 The RFQ was issued under the General Services Administration's Alliant
          Government-Wide Acquisition Contract and was limited to small business contract
          holders under that program. As a result this protest arises under our jurisdiction to
          hear protests of the award of task orders placed under multiple-award contracts
          created by civilian agencies, provided the value of the task order exceeds
          $10 million. Kevcon, Inc., B-406418, Mar. 7, 2012, 2012 CPD   108 at 3.
