         File:        B-412237; B-412237.2; B-412237.3

         Date:        January 11, 2016

         Jonathan S. Aronie, Esq., and Derek R. Mullins, Esq., Sheppard, Mullin, Richter
         & Hampton LLP, for the protester.
         William A. Shook, Esq., The Law Offices of William A. Shook PLLC, for InfoReliance
         Solutions, JV, the intervenor.
         Stephani L. Abramson, Esq., National Archives and Records Administration, for the

         DIGEST

         1. Protest is denied where the agency reasonably rejected the protester's proposal
         as unacceptable because it failed to comply with material solicitation instructions.

         2. Protest is denied where the agency reasonably concluded that the awardee's
         proposed price was reasonable based on comparison with current prices for the
         same or similar items under an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity contract.
         DECISION

         DLT Solutions, LLC, of Herndon, Virginia, protests the award of a flexible ordering
         agreement (FOA) to InfoReliance Solutions, JV, of Fairfax, Virginia, under request
         for proposals (RFP) No. NAMA-15-R-0004, which was issued by the National
         Archives and Record Administration (NARA) for commercial cloud computing
         services. DLT argues that the agency improperly excluded DLT's proposal from
         consideration for award based on two perceived deviations from the RFP's
         requirements in its price proposal. DLT also challenges the agency's determination
         that the awardee's proposed price was reasonable.


We deny the protest.
