         Matter of:   McLaurin General Maintenance, Inc.

         File:        B-411443.2; B-411443.3

         Date:     January 14, 2016

         Lawrence J. Sklute, Esq., and Ethan Brown, Esq., Sklute & Associates, for the
         protester.
         Captain Meghan E. Mahaney, Major James P. Leary, Scott N. Flesch, Esq.,
         Department of the Army, for the agency.
         Heather Weiner, Esq., and Jonathan L. Kang, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
         GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
         DIGEST

         1. Protest challenging the technical acceptability of the awardee's proposed staffing
         is denied where the agency reasonably evaluated the awardee's quotation in
         accordance with the solicitation's terms.

         2. Protest that the agency improperly awarded the contract to a firm that lacked the
         required license to perform the work at the time of quotation submission is denied
         where the solicitation provision is a performance requirement, which offerors were
         not required to satisfy prior to award, and which this Office will not review.
         DECISION

         McLaurin General Maintenance, Inc., of Eastover, North Carolina, a small business,
         protests the award of a contract to Tekton Construction Company, of Forest Hill,
         Maryland, also a small business, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. W91247-
         15-T-0001, which was issued by the Department of the Army, Mission and
         Installation Contracting Command Center, Fort Bragg, North Carolina, for kitchen
         equipment and maintenance. McLaurin challenges the Army's evaluation of the
         awardee's quotation as technically acceptable.


We deny the protest.
