           DIGEST

           Protest challenging agency's evaluation of protester's proposal and source selection
           is denied where the record establishes that the evaluation and selection decision
           were reasonable and consistent with the solicitation's evaluation criteria.
           DECISION

           United Contracting, LLC, of Pike Road, Alabama, protests the award of a contract
           to Abrams Group Construction, LLC, of Pace, Florida, under request for proposals
           (RFP) No. VA-247-1 1 -RP-0508, issued by the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA),
           for construction and maintenance services at the Central Alabama Veterans Health
           Care System (CAVHCS) medical centers in Tuskegee and Montgomery, Alabama.
           The protester challenges the agency's evaluation and selection decision.

           We deny the protest.'

           BACKGROUND

           The RFP was set-aside for service-disabled, veteran-owned small businesses and
           provided for the award of a fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/lQ)
           contract for a base year and 4 option years. RFP at 1, 5-6, 22-23. The solicitation

           1 Because a protective order was not issued in connection with the protest, our
           decision is necessarily general.
