DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to Decision a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Armedia, LLC File: B-415525; B-415525.2; B-415525.3 Date: January 10, 2018 William M. Weisberg, Esq., Law Offices of William Weisberg, PLLC, for the protester. Samuel B.

Stevenson, Esq., and Laura Eyester, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest challenging the evaluation of the protester's technical proposal and the awardee's past performance is denied where the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the terms of the solicitation. 2. Protest alleging agency failed to provide the protester an opportunity to address a potential organizational conflict of interest is denied where the record shows that the protester was not the apparent successful offeror, and the solicitation stated that award would be made without discussions. DECISION Armedia, LLC, a small business of Vienna, Virginia, protests the award of a contract to Vexterra Group, a small business of Alexandria, Virginia, under request for proposals (RFP) No. HHM402-17-R-0045, issued by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) for support services in digital forensics for the National Media Exploitation Center (NMEC) Science and Technology Integration Lab (STIL). The protester challenges the agency's evaluation of its technical proposal and the awardee's past performance, and the source selection decision. The protester also contends that the agency improperly failed to provide it with the opportunity to address a potential organizational conflict of interest (OCI) identified by the evaluators during the evaluation of its proposal. We deny the protest.
