Matter of: Sea Box, Inc. File: B-408182.5 Date: January 10, 2014 Pamela J. Mazza, Esq., Brian F. Wilbourn, Esq., Kathryn V. Flood, Esq., and Peter B. Ford, Esq., PilieroMazza PLLC, for the protester. David R. Johnson, Esq., Jamie F. Tabb, Esq., and Elizabeth A. Krabill, Esq., Vinson & Elkins LLP, for Technology and Supply Management, LLC, the intervenor. Wade L. Brown, Esq., and Denise M. Marrama, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Heather Weiner, Esq., and Jonathan L. Kang, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that the agency unreasonably evaluated the compliance of the awardee's proposal with a material solicitation requirement is denied where the record shows that the agency's evaluation of the awardee's proposal was reasonable and consistent with the solicitation terms. 2. Protest that the agency unreasonably excluded the protester's proposal from the competitive range is denied where the agency reasonably determined that the protester's proposal did not address a solicitation requirement and was not among the most highly-rated offers. DECISION Sea Box, Inc., of East Riverton, New Jersey, protests the award of a contract to Technology and Supply Management, LLC (TaSM), of Fairfax, Virginia, under Request for Proposals (RFP) No. W15QKN-12-R-0070, issued by the U.S. Army, Army Contracting Command, New Jersey, for energy efficient shelters. Sea Box protests the Army's evaluation of its proposal as technically unacceptable, and exclusion of its proposal from the competitive range. The protester also challenges the agency's technical evaluation of Sea Box's and TaSM's proposals, as well as the size status of TaSM. We deny the protest.
