Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States 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. L ...................................................................................................................... Matter of: Focused Management, Inc. File: B-415136; B-415136.2 Date: November 20, 2017 Tenley A. Carp, Esq., Sara M. Lord, Esq., and Samuel M. Shapiro, Esq., Arnall Golden Gregory LLP, for the protester. Marci A. Lawson, Esq., and David C. Morzenti, Esq., National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency, for the agency. Heather Weiner, Esq., and Jennifer D. Westfall-McGrail, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest challenging agency's evaluation of protester's proposal is denied where the record shows the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the solicitation's evaluation criteria. 2. Protest of the exclusion of protester's proposal from the competitive range is denied where the agency reasonably determined, consistent with the solicitation's evaluation criteria, that the protester's proposal was not among the most highly rated. DECISION Focused Management, Inc. (FMI), a service-disabled veteran-owned small business located in Alexandria, Virginia, protests the exclusion of its proposal from the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP) No. HM0476-17-R-0007, issued by the National Geospatial-Intelligence Agency (NGA), for general support services under Functional Area 1 of its MOJAVE program. The protester argues that the agency improperly evaluated its proposal as unacceptable under the personnel security clearance and technical capability evaluation subfactors, and engaged in disparate treatment among the offerors. The protester also argues that the agency unreasonably excluded FMI's proposal from the competitive range. We deny the protest.
