          DIGEST

          1. Protest challenging the evaluation of offerors' technical proposals and past
          performance is denied where the record shows that agency's evaluation was
          reasonable and supported by the record.

          2. Contracting agency did not engage in misleading or unequal discussions where
          the record reflects that it accurately advised the protester of the specific concerns
          related to the protester's technical and cost proposals.
          DECISION

          Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), of Falls Church, Virginia, protests the
          issuance of a task order to Northrop Grumman Systems Corporation, of McLean,
          Virginia, under request for technical and cost proposals (RTCP) No. 4142, issued by
          the Department of the Treasury, Internal Revenue Service (IRS), for infrastructure
          shared services (ISS). The RTCP was issued under an existing multiple-award,
          indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract known as the Total Information
          Processing Support Services 4 contract (TIPSS-4) for information technology
          services (ITS). CSC argues that the agency's evaluation of offerors' proposals and
          resulting award decision were improper.


We deny the protest.
