         Decision


         Matter of: Gorod Shtor

         File:        B-411284

         Date:        May 22, 2015

         Olga Bajina for the protester.
         Dennis J. Gallagher, Esq., Department of State, for the agency.
         Louis A. Chiarella, Esq., and Nora K. Adkins, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
         GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
         DIGEST

         Protest issue raised subsequent to a post-award debriefing provided to a vendor in
         a simplified acquisition procurement for a commercial item is untimely where it was
         filed more than 10 days after the basis of protest was known; since the procurement
         was not one involving a required debriefing, the timeliness rules based on protests
         which challenge a procurement involving a required debriefing are not applicable.
         DECISION

         Gorod Shtor, of Moscow, Russia, protests the award of a contract to 000 Premier
         Design, of Moscow, Russia, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. SRS500-15-Q-
         0002, issued by the Department of State for drapery making and installation
         services at the U.S. Embassy Moscow. Gorod Shtor argues that the agency's
         evaluation of vendors' quotations was unreasonable, and that the resulting award
         decision was improper.

         We dismiss the protest.

         The RFQ was issued on November 24, 2014, under the commercial item acquisition
         and simplified acquisition procedures of Federal Acquisition Regulations (FAR) part
         12 and subpart 13.5. The solicitation contemplated the award of an indefinite-
         delivery, indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contract to provide the U.S. Embassy Moscow
         with drapery making and installation services, to include materials, for a base year
         together with four 1-year options. The solicitation included a work statement,
         estimated quantities of items for each performance period, instructions to vendors
