DIGEST

Protest that an amendment to the solicitation does not reflect the agency's actual
requirements because it lacks details and is ambiguous is denied where the solicitation
provided sufficiently detailed information for offerors to intelligently prepare their
proposals on a common  basis.
DECISION

Seventh Dimension, LLC, of Mocksville, North Carolina, protests the terms of an
amendment   to request for proposals (RFP) No. H92239-19-R-0002, issued by the
Department of the Army, Special Operations Command (USASOC),  for role player and
facility support services. The protester argues that the new requirements for
contractor-provided training facilities added by the amendment do not reflect the
agency's actual needs, and, among other things, does not account for additional costs
that the agency would incur.

We  deny the protest.

BACKGROUND

The RFP  was issued on March 13, 2019 under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR)
part 15 and set aside for service-disabled veteran-owned small businesses, to provide
training exercise management, role player, subject matter expertise and training support
for assessment, selection, and training conducted by USASOC's 1st Special Warfare
