DIGEST Protest challenging the agency's price evaluation and source selection decision is denied where the agency evaluated price proposals and made its source selection decision in accordance with the solicitation and procurement statutes and regulations. DECISION U.S. Electrodynamics, Inc. (USEI), a service-disabled veteran-owned small business of Brewster, Washington, protests the decision not to award USEI a contract under request for proposals (RFP) No. QTA001 5SDA4003, issued by the General Services Administration (GSA) for complex commercial satellite communication service solutions. The protester contends that the agency improperly evaluated its price proposal using unstated evaluation criteria and performed a disparate and unequal evaluation. The protester further contends that the source selection authority (SSA) failed to exercise independent judgment and perform a comparative assessment during source selection, in violation of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) § 15.308. We deny the protest.
