Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to a GAO Protective Order. This version has been Decision .approved for public release. Matter of: VSE Corporation File: B-417908; B-417908.2 Date: November 27, 2019 Cameron Hamrick, Esq., C. Peter Dungan, Esq., and Jason Blindauer, Esq., Miles & Stockbridge P.C., for the protester. Kevin P. Connelly, Esq., Kelly E. Buroker, Esq., and Jeffrey M. Lowry, Esq., Vedder Price, P.C., for AECOM Management Services, Inc., the intervenor. Jonathan A. Hardage, Esq., Amanda C. Gingrich, Esq., and Kevin G. Normile, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Evan D. Wesser, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging an agency's evaluation of the awardee's proposal for failing to reasonably consider whether the proposal presented unacceptable performance risks due to the awardee's divestiture from its corporate parent is denied. The challenges to the awardee's financial capacity to perform in fact pertain to the awardee's affirmative responsibility, and we have no basis to question the reasonableness of the agency's responsibility determination regarding the awardee. The non-price challenges also fail because the solicitation did not contemplate the evaluation of any factor other than price. DECISION VSE Corporation, of Alexandria, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order to AECOM Management Services, Inc., of Germantown, Maryland, under task order request (TOR) No. W56HZV-19-X-JW02, which was issued by the Department of the Army, Army Materiel Command, for a supplemental labor force to support combat/tactical vehicle production, facilities maintenance, warehousing, and hazardous materials handling for disposal in support of the Department of Defense Industrial Base for Red River Army Depot, Sierra Army Depot, Anniston Army Depot, and Rock Island Arsenal. The TOR was issued against the Equipment Related Services (ERS) contract suite under the TACOM Strategic Service Solutions (TS3) multiple award, indefinite- delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contracts. VSE argues that the Army unreasonably evaluated AECOM Management Services' proposal.
