           Matter of:   Shaw Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc.

           File:        B-408502

           Date:        September 30, 2013

           Kenneth B. Weckstein, Esq., and Aidan J. Delgado, Esq., Brown Rudnick LLP, for
           the protester.
           Brian A. Bannon, Esq., Brian S. Gocial, Esq., and Lucas T. Hanback, Esq., Blank
           Rome LLP, for Tetra Tech EC, Inc., the intervenor.
           Camille N. Rybar, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency.
           Jennifer D. Westfall-McGrail, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the
           General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
           DIGEST

           1. Protester's challenge of agency's evaluation of protester's proposal is denied
           where record fails to demonstrate that agency's evaluation was unreasonable or
           inconsistent with the terms of the solicitation.

           2. Protest that source selection decision is insufficiently documented is denied
           where the record establishes that source selection authority reasonably considered
           the relative merit of the proposals in her selection decision and concluded that
           specific advantages associated with the awardee's proposal were worth paying a
           higher price.
           DECISION

           Shaw Environmental & Infrastructure, Inc., of San Diego, California, protests the
           award of a contract to Tetra Tech EC, Inc., of San Diego, California, under request
           for proposals (RFP) No. N62473-1 1 -R-2201, issued by the Department of the Navy,
           Naval Facilities Engineering Command for environmental remediation services.
           The protester contends that the agency's evaluation of its proposal and source
           selection decision were flawed.


We deny the protest.
