DIGEST Protest challenging an agency's evaluation of offerors' relevant experience submissions is sustained where solicitation language concerning relevant experience evaluation factor created a latent ambiguity that prevented offerors from competing intelligently and on a relatively equal basis. DECISION RELI Group, Inc., of Catonsville, Maryland, protests the award of an indefinite- delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contract and an initial task order to DSFederal, Inc., of Rockville, Maryland, under request for proposals (RFP) No. 15-223-SOL- 00089, issued by the Department of Health and Human Services, Food and Drug Administration (FDA). The RFP sought operations and maintenance (O&M) and development modernization and enhancement (DME) support for an FDA portal for reporting problems associated with products that are regulated by the FDA. The protester alleges that the FDA evaluated its proposal in a manner that was inconsistent with the RFP. We sustain the protest.
