           Matter of:  Afghan Premier Logistics

           File:       B-409971

           Date:       September 26, 2014

           Michael A. Gordon, Esq., Fran Baskin, Esq., and Jason T. Edwards, Esq.,
           Michael A. Gordon PLLC; Richard L. Moorhouse, Esq., and L. James D'Agostino,
           Esq., Greenberg Traurig LLP, for the protester.
           Lt. Col. Mark E. Allen and Capt. Eric J. Singley, Department of the Air Force and
           J. Toby Harryman, Esq., U.S. Transportation Command, for the agency.
           Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and David A. Ashen, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
           GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
           DIGEST

           Protester's contention that the agency unreasonably rejected its proposal to perform
           trucking services throughout Afghanistan is denied where the record shows that
           protester's proposal was assigned a high risk force protection rating, based on
           classified information that could not be disclosed to the protester but was reviewed
           by our Office, and provides a reasonable basis for the agency's decision to reject
           the proposal.
           DECISION

           Afghan Premier Logistics (APL), of Kabul, Afghanistan, protests the
           U.S. Transportation Command's (USTRANSCOM)l rejection of APL's proposal to
           provide trucking services in Afghanistan pursuant to request for proposals (RFP)
           No. HTC711-14-R-W002. ATL asserts that it is entitled to a contract award
           because it submitted a technically acceptable proposal that offered a lower price
           than that of some of the awardees.

           We deny the protest.

           1 USTRANSCOM is one of nine unified commands within the U.S. Department of
           Defense (DOD). The mission of USTRANSCOM is to provide air, land, and sea
           transportation for the DOD, both in peace and wartime.
