         DIGEST

         Protest challenging an agency's evaluation of the protester's past performance is
         sustained where the agency applied a mechanical formula in assessing past
         performance that resulted in an unreasonable distinction between the two offerors.
         DECISION

         Patricio Enterprises, Inc., of Stafford, Virginia, a service-disabled, veteran-owned
         small business, protests the issuance of a task order to Get It Done Solutions, LLC
         (GID) of Fredericksburg, Virginia, under request for proposals (RFP) No. N00024-
         15-R-3589, issued by the United States Marine Corps, Marine Corps Systems
         Command, for program and financial management support services for the
         agency's Program Manager, Infantry Weapons Systems (PM IWS) program.'
         Patricio asserts that the agency unreasonably evaluated the proposals of GID and
         Patricio. Patricio further asserts that the agency failed to perform a reasonable
         trade-off in making the award decision.

         1 The estimated value of the task order at issue is in excess of $10 million.
         Accordingly, this procurement is within our jurisdiction to hear protests related to the
         issuance of task and delivery orders under multiple-award indefinite-
         delivery/indefinite quantity (IDIQ) contracts. 10 U.S.C. § 2304c(e).
