DECISION

Daekee Global Company, Ltd. (Daekee), of Busan, South Korea, protests the terms of
request for proposals (RFP) No. N6264917R0257, issued by the Department of Navy
for ship husbanding services. The protester primarily argues that the evaluation
scheme set forth in the solicitation fails to evaluate offerors' technical capabilities or past
performance, as the protester asserts is required by Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR) part 15.

We dismiss the protest because the protester has not established that it is an interested
party.

The solicitation was issued on June 16, 2017, under FAR part 15 and sought ship
husbanding support services for all commercial and military ports located in the Seventh
Fleet area of operations, Region 4, which includes Korea, Japan, Russia (Pacific coast),
and Taiwan. RFP1 at 000001, 000016, 000079.2 The solicitation contemplated

1 The solicitation was amended six times. All citations to the solicitation are to the final
version as amended on July 6, 2017.
