           DIGEST

           1. Protest of evaluation of proposals is denied where record shows agency's
           evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the solicitation's evaluation factors
           and applicable procurement rules.

           2. Allegation that agency improperly considered corporate experience of proposed
           subcontractor is denied where solicitation did not expressly prohibit such
           consideration.
           DECISION

           The Bowen Group, of Stafford Virginia, protests the award of a contract to Special
           Media Enterprises, LLC (SME), of Springfield, Oregon, under request for proposals
           (RFP) No. M00264-14-R-0001, issued by the United States Marine Corps for
           support services to the Wounded Warrior Regiment (WVR) Recovery Care
           Coordinator (RCC) Program. Bowen challenges the agency's technical, corporate
           experience, and past performance evaluations, as well as the source selection
           decision.


We deny the protest.
