This redacted version has been Decision approved fo pubrelease Matter of: BAE Systems Technology Solutions and Services, Inc. File: B-405664; B-405664.2 Date: December 12, 2011 Rand L. Allen, Esq., Thomas J. Warren, Esq., Scott M. McCaleb, Esq., William M. Novak, Esq., and Benjamin J. Kohr, Esq., Wiley Rein, LLP, for the protester. Gerard F. Doyle, Esq., and Ron R. Hutchinson, Esq., Doyle & Bachman LLP, for L-3 Communications Vertex Aerospace, LLC, the intervenor. Gina M. Gascoigne, Esq., William T. Mohn, Esq., Andrew J. McCabe, Esq., and Kimberly L. Foltz, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. John L. Formica, Esq., and Jonathan L. Kang, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Agency's evaluation and selection of the awardee's higher-rated, higher-priced proposal for award was not reasonably based where the agency failed to adequately consider the terms of a key feature of the awardee's proposal and the effect that the terms of the key feature may have on the extent of the awardee's commitment to perform the tasks described, and failed to reasonably evaluate the protester's proposal under the solicitation's experience factor. DECISION BAE Systems Technology Solutions and Services, Inc., of Rockville, Maryland, protests the award of a contract to L-3 Communications Vertex Aerospace, LLC, of Madison, Mississippi, under request for proposals (RFP) No. N00019-10-R-0069, issued by the Department of the Navy, Naval Air Systems Command, for contractor logistics support (CLS) of certain trainer aircraft at multiple locations. BAE argues that the agency's evaluation of proposals and selection of L-3's proposal for award were unreasonable. We sustain the protest.
