         Matter of:   Remote Diagnostic Technologies, LLC

         File:        B-413375.4; B-413375.5

         Date:        February 28, 2017

         Robert J. Symon, Esq., Elizabeth A. Ferrell, Esq., and Aron C. Beezley, Esq.,
         Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP, for the protester.
         Thomas L. McGovern III, Esq., Michael D. McGill, Esq., and Christine
         Reynolds, Esq., Hogan Lovells US LLP, for the intervenor.
         Lillian S. Weiss, Esq., and Jared P. Weissberger, Esq., Defense Logistics Agency,
         for the agency.
         Gabriel D. Soil, Esq., and Christina Sklarew, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
         GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
         DIGEST

         1. Protest challenging solicitation requirements as unduly restrictive is denied
         where the record supports the agency's assertion that the requirements are
         reasonably necessary to meet the agency's needs.

         2. Protester is not an interested party to challenge other solicitation provisions or
         aspects of the procurement where the firm is unable to provide a product satisfying
         the solicitation's specifications.
         DECISION

         Remote Diagnostic Technologies, LLC (RDT) of Basingstoke, England, challenges
         the terms of request for proposals (RFP) No. SPE2D1-15-R-0005, issued by the
         Defense Logistics Agency (DLA) for deployable medical diagnostic equipment and
         related supplies and accessories. RDT argues that certain requirements in the
         solicitation, as amended in response to an earlier protest, are unduly restrictive of
         competition.


We deny the protest in part and dismiss it in part.
