DIGEST

Protest challenging the agency's evaluation of proposals is denied where the record
shows that the evaluation was consistent with the solicitation and applicable statutes
and regulations; remaining allegations concerning the adequacy of discussions need
not be addressed because the record shows that the protester was not prejudiced by
any errors in this regard.
DECISION

Roco Rescue, of Baton Rouge, Louisiana, protests the award of a contract to Tribalco,
LLC, of Bethesda, Maryland, under request for proposals (RFP) No. FA8629-17-R-
5003, issued by the Department of the Air Force for tactical recovery kits. Roco, the
incumbent contractor, argues that the agency unreasonably evaluated proposals and
conducted inadequate discussions.

We deny the protest.'

1 Our Office did not issue a protective order in connection with this protest. A complete
version of the agency report was provided to our Office, while a redacted version of the
report was furnished to the protester. We have reviewed the entire unredacted record
in camera. As much of the information reviewed by our Office is source selection
sensitive and/or proprietary in nature, our discussion of the evaluation is necessarily
limited.
