           Date:        January 6, 2014

           Douglas L. Patin, Esq., Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP, for the protester.

           DIGEST

           Protest that an agency disparately evaluated proposals is denied where the record
           shows that the agency reasonably evaluated proposals consistent with the
           solicitation.
           DECISION

           Desbuild Incorporated of Hyattsville, Maryland, protests the award of contracts to
           Biscayne Contractors, Inc.; Meltech Corporation, Inc.; Montage Inc.; and TMG
           Construction Corporation under request for proposals (RFP) No. 2151136564,
           issued by the Department of Justice, Federal Bureau of Investigation (FBI), for
           repair, renovation, new construction and alterations to facilities and utilities at
           various FBI facilities, including the FBI Headquarters in Washington, D.C., the FBI
           Academy in Quantico, Virginia, and the Criminal Justice Information Services
           Complex in Clarksburg, West Virginia. Desbuild challenges the FBI's evaluation of
           proposals and selection decision.

           We deny the protest.
