Matter of: Global Integrated Security (USA) Inc. File: B-408916.3; B-408916.4; B-408916.5 Date: December 18, 2014 David S. Black, Esq., Elizabeth N. Jochum, Esq., Kelly A. Krystyniak, Esq., Gregory R. Hallmark, Esq., Elizabeth M. Gill, Esq., and Richard 0. Duvall, Esq., Holland & Knight LLP, for the protester. Paul E. Pompeo, Esq., Kara L. Daniels, Esq., and Lauren J. Schlanger, Esq., Arnold & Porter, for Triple Canopy, Inc., the intervenor. Morgan L. Cosby, Esq., Department of State, for the agency. John L. Formica, Esq., Noah B. Bleicher, Esq., and Nora K. Adkins, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Agency's evaluation of the protester's and awardee's past performance is unobjectionable where the evaluation was in accordance with the terms of the solicitation and reasonably based. 2. Agency's post-protest clarification of a factual inconsistency in its past performance evaluation will be considered and weighed appropriately by our Office, where the error was factual in nature, did not constitute a reevaluation of proposals, and was consistent with other statements set forth in the contemporaneous evaluation documents. DECISION Global Integrated Security (USA) Inc., of Herndon, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order to Triple Canopy, Inc., of Reston, Virginia, under Task Order Request for Proposals (TORFP) No. 2013-0012, issued by the Department of State, for security, logistical, and support services in Basrah, Iraq. Global argues that the agency's evaluation of proposals was unreasonable and evidenced bias. We deny the protests.
