Matter of: JAM Corporation File: B-408775 Date: December 4, 2013 Theodore P. Watson, Esq., and Nicole Lynn Carter, Esq., Watson & Associates, LLC, for the protester. Gregory S. Jacobs, Esq., and Erin L. Felix, Esq., Reed Smith LLP, for American Engineering Corporation, the intervenor. C. Scott Vogeley, Esq., United States Marine Corps, for the agency. Kenneth Kilgour, Esq., and David A. Ashen, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that agency improperly evaluated proposals is denied where the record shows that the agency's evaluation was reasonable and in accordance with the terms of the solicitation and applicable procurement statutes and regulations. 2. Agency's determination that protester's cited contract did not meet the solicitation's 3-year recency requirement for consideration in the past performance evaluation reasonably relied upon protester's own indication in its proposal of the contract end date to determine that the contract was not recent, notwithstanding the protester's unsupported claim that the agency should have known that the contract extended for an unspecified period after the end date reported in the protester's proposal. DECISION JAM Corporation, of Okinawa, Japan, protests the U.S. Marine Corps's (USMC) award of a contract to American Engineering Corporation (AEC), of Okinawa, Japan, under request for proposals (RFP) No. M67400-13-R-0003, for corrosion control and repair services for government-owned equipment at Camp Kisner, Okinawa, Japan. The protester challenges the evaluation of technical proposals and the best value trade-off decision. We deny the protest.
