DIGEST

Protest of corrective action is denied where the agency's decision to reopen
discussions, solicit new final proposals, reevaluate offers, and make a new source
selection decision is appropriate to resolve evaluation errors identified by the
agency.
DECISION

XYZ Corporation protests the corrective action being taken by the Central
Intelligence Agency, under request for proposals (RFP) No. B15-2014295G001 for
security services. XYZ argues that the agency's refusal to disqualify ABC from the
competition results in a failure to address the errors identified by the agency.'

We deny the protest.
