Challenge to the agency's evaluation of the protester's quote as technically unacceptable is denied where the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the terms of the solicitation. 2. Protest that the awards to two firms was tainted by an unequal access to information organization conflict of interest is denied where the protester fails to present hard facts indicating the existence of a conflict and where the contracting officer reasonably found that no conflict existed. DECISION Cyberdata Technologies, Inc., of Herndon, Virginia, protests the decision by the General Services Administration (GSA) to establish blanket purchase agreements (BPAs) with Wexler Technical Solutions, Inc. (WTS), of Rockville, Maryland, and IDOX Solutions Inc., of Bethesda, Maryland, under request for quotes (RFQ) No. QID09140051 R for support in the development and the operations and maintenance of new Enterprise Data/Information Management environments. RFQ at 8. Cyberdata argues that the agency unreasonably found its quote technically unacceptable. The protester also contends that WTS and IDOX should have been eliminated from the competition due to organizational conflicts of interest (OCIs) that arose from an unfair competitive advantage that the awardee's received from their proposed subcontractor.
