         DIGEST

         Protests that agency misevaluated proposals and made an unreasonable source
         selection decision are sustained where record fails to show that agency had a
         reasonable basis for its evaluation of proposals and its evaluation was not
         consistent with the terms of the solicitation; and agency's source selection decision
         failed to make a reasoned comparison of proposals or articulate why award to the
         selected firm was reasonable.
