DIGEST

1. Protest that agency improperly failed to amend the solicitation to reflect the agency's
true needs at the time of award is denied where the agency states that it will not use the
current task order for the new work tasked to the agency after receipt of proposals, and
there is no indication in the record that this new work, which the protester acknowledges
is separate from that being solicited under the solicitation, caused a material change to
any of the requirements in the solicitation.

2. Protest challenging agency's evaluation of proposals and source selection decision
is denied where the record shows that the agency's evaluation and selection decision
were reasonable and consistent with the terms of the solicitation.
DECISION

Sigmatech, Inc., of Huntsville, Alabama, protests the issuance of a task order to COLSA
Corporation, also of Huntsville, Alabama, pursuant to task order requirement package
(TORP) No. 18-009, issued by the Department of the Army, Army Materiel Command,
to provide support services to the Missile Defense and Space Systems (MDSS) project
office (PO). Sigmatech, the incumbent contractor for the services at issue, argues that
the Army improperly failed to amend the solicitation to reflect the agency's true needs at
the time of award. The protester also contends that the agency erred in its evaluation of
proposals and best-value tradeoff decision.


We deny the protest.
