handle is hein.gao/gaobadrmn0001 and id is 1 raw text is: G A O Comptroller General Accountability * Integrity * Reliability of the United States United States Government Accountability Office Washington, DC 20548 Decision Matter of: Precise Management, LLC File: B-411708 Date: October 5, 2015 Ronjiel Sharpe for the protester. Maj. Michael G. Pond, Department of the Army, for the agency. Paula A. Williams, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Agency properly cancelled solicitation where it evaluated the proposals received as technically unacceptable and could not determine that any of the proposed prices were fair and reasonable. DECISION Precise Management, LLC of McCalla, Alabama, protests the cancellation of request for quotations (RFQ) No. W9124C-1 5-T-001 5 issued by the Department of the Army, Mission and Installation Contracting Command, for pest management services at Fort Jackson, South Carolina.' The protester argues that the agency improperly cancelled the solicitation after unreasonably evaluating the protester's proposal as technically unacceptable and the protester's proposed price as unreasonable. We deny the protest. BACKGROUND 1 Although the solicitation identified itself as an RFQ, the term proposal as opposed to quotation, appears repeatedly throughout both the solicitation and the agency's procurement record. The solicitation contemplated an evaluation and source selection scheme similar to those used in negotiated procurements. For the sake of consistency, our decision adopts the terminology used by the solicitation and the agency record.
