          DIGEST

          1. Protest challenging evaluation of protester's past performance is denied where
          record shows that evaluation was either reasonable or did not prejudice protester.

          2. Protest challenging agency's best value tradeoff is denied where record reflects
          that agency substantively considered relative merits of and price difference between
          proposals, and error noted by protester was not prejudicial.
          DECISION

          GBTI Solutions, Inc., of McLean, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order
          to Business Information Technology Solutions, Inc. (BITS), of Alexandria, Virginia,
          by the Defense Logistics Agency under request for quotations (RFQ) No. SP4701 -
          13-Q-0039 for desktop managed services for the Defense Contract Audit Agency
          (DCAA). GBTI asserts that the agency unreasonably evaluated its proposal and
          that the agency's best value tradeoff analysis was flawed.

          We deny the protest.
