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. Matter of: Network Security Systems Plus, Inc. File: B-416755 Date: December 6, 2018 Michael J. Schrier, Esq., and Matthew A. Freeman, Esq., Duane Morris LLP, for the protester. Jeffrey S. Robinette, Esq., Jill K. McDowell, Esq., and Jason P. Matechak, Esq., Impresa Legal Group, for AbleVets, LLC, the intervenor. David White, Esq., and Mark S. Christopher, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Paula J. Haurilesko, Esq., and Laura Eyester, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that the agency misevaluated the awardee's proposal is denied, where the agency reasonably considered information within the evaluation team's personal knowledge concerning dates of performance. 2. Protest that the agency conducted a faulty cost realism analysis is denied, where the record shows that the agency reasonably considered the awardee's forward pricing rate proposal and supporting documentation. DECISION Network Security Systems Plus, Inc. (NSSPlus), of Falls Church, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order to AbleVets, LLC, of Chantilly, Virginia, under task order request for proposals (RFP) No. N65236-18-R-3086, issued by the Department of the Navy, Space and Naval Warfare Systems Command (SPAWAR), for cyber security service provider (CSSP) vulnerability analysis and audit support. NSSPlus, the incumbent contractor, challenges the evaluation of technical and cost proposals, and contends that the Navy's best-value tradeoff decision was unreasonable. We deny the protest.
