           DIGEST

           Protest challenging an agency's evaluation and source selection decision is denied
           where the protester has not demonstrated that the evaluation was unreasonable or
           inconsistent with the solicitation.
           DECISION

           Allen Engineering Contractor, Inc., of San Bernadino, California, protests the award
           of a contract to Del-Jen, Inc., of Clarksville, Tennessee, under request for proposals
           (RFP) No. HSBP1209R2483, issued by the Department of Homeland Security,
           United States Customs & Border Protection (CBP), for comprehensive tactical
           infrastructure maintenance and repair services. Allen challenges the agency's
           evaluation of proposals and selection decision.

           We deny the protest.

           BACKGROUND

           Pursuant to the Secure Fence Act of 2006, CBP is constructing and maintaining a
           physical infrastructure (fences, gates, roads, bridges, and lights) along the
           southwest border with Mexico. The RFP provided for the award of cost-plus-fixed-
           fee contract for maintenance and repair services of this physical infrastructure for
           two sections, areas 2 (stretching from Yuma, California to Tucson, Arizona) and
           area 3 (stretching from El Peso, New Mexico to Marfa, Texas). See RFP § B;
