          DIGEST

          Protest challenging the agency's evaluation of the realism of the awardee's
          proposed staffing approach is denied where the record shows that the agency
          reviewed the proposed labor hours, labor mix, labor rates, and staffing efficiencies,
          and reasonably concluded that the awardee's approach was realistic for the work
          proposed.
          DECISION

          Salient Federal Solutions, of Fairfax, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order
          to Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), of O'Fallon, Illinois, by the
          Department of Defense, U.S. Transportation Command, under request for
          proposals (RFP) No. HTC711-13-R-D016,1 for integrated booking system

          1 The task order was issued under the Department of Defense's ENCORE II
          multiple-award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contract schedule. The
          evaluated award value of the task order was $16,764,690.55. AR, Tab 13, Source
          Selection Evaluation Board (SSEB) Report, at 9. As a result, this procurement falls
          within our jurisdiction to hear protests related to the issuance of task orders under
          multiple-award ID/IQ contracts valued in excess of $10 million. 10 U.S.C.
          § 2304c(e)(1)(B).
