         Matter of:   Motorola Solutions, Inc

         File:        B-409148; B-409148.2

         Date:        January 28, 2014

         Mark D. Colley, Esq., and Dominique L. Casimir, Esq., Arnold & Porter LLP, for the
         protester.
         Debra J. Talley, Esq., David H. Scott, Esq., and J.E. Purcellmarchese, Esq.,
         Department of the Army, for the agency.
         Scott H. Riback, Esq., and Tania Calhoun, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
         GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
         DIGEST

         1. Protest allegation is timely where record shows that agency delayed furnishing
         protester with information that was critical to raising its argument, protester diligently
         pursued the information, and protester filed within 10 days of being provided the
         information that was improperly withheld.

         2. Protest that agency improperly accepted awardee's proposal is sustained where
         record shows that the proposal offered to furnish certain equipment that was
         material to the acceptability of the awardee's proposal, but did not provide evidence
         of the awardee's ability to obtain the equipment, as required by the solicitation.
         DECISION

         Motorola Solutions, Inc., of Columbia, Maryland, protests the award of a contract to
         Harris Corporation, of Lynchburg, Virginia, under request for proposals (RFP) No.
         W91CRB-13-R-0024, issued by the Department of the Army, U.S. Army Materiel
         Command, for a land mobile radio (LMR) system for the Detroit Arsenal, Michigan.
         Motorola maintains that the agency misevaluated Harris's proposal and improperly
         made award to that firm.


We sustain the protest.
