Protest that the solicitation's past performance evaluation period is unreasonably narrow, because the agency allegedly lacks reliable incumbent contractor data for the evaluation period, is denied where the record supports the reasonableness of the past performance evaluation criteria. 2. Protest that the agency failed to provide sufficient time to respond to the solicitation amendment and address past performance information is denied where the record shows that offerors were given a reasonable amount of time to prepare their proposals.
