           DIGEST

           1. Protest that an agency failed to afford the protester meaningful discussions is
           denied where record shows that agency led protester into areas of its proposal
           requiring correction or amplification in order for the protester to have a reasonable
           chance to receive award; agency was under no obligation to discuss significant
           weaknesses introduced by the protester for the first time in its final proposal
           revision.

           2. Protest that an agency failed to provide for a common cutoff date for the
           submission of final proposals is denied where record does not demonstrate that the
           protester was prejudiced by the agency's actions.

           3. Protest challenging an agency's evaluation of proposals is denied where record
           shows that agency's evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the terms of the
           solicitation and applicable statutes and regulations.
