           DIGEST

           1. Protest that awardee's proposal was ambiguous as to the identity of the offeror is
           denied where the awardee's proposal, read as a whole, clearly identified the
           offering concern.

           2. Protest that agency unreasonably credited awardee with the past performance of
           an affiliated concern is denied where record establishes that past performance
           examples were performed by the same concern identified for performance of the
           solicited requirement.

           3. Protest that agency improperly gave awardee's proposal more evaluation credit
           than given to the protester's proposal is denied where record shows that the agency
           had a reasonable basis for distinguishing between the proposals during its
           evaluation.
