Matter of:   Network Runners, Inc.

File:        B-418268; B-418268.2

Date:        February 14, 2020

Michael J. Navarre, Esq., Caitlin T. Conroy, Esq., and Paul R. Hurst, Esq., Steptoe &
Johnson LLP, for the protester.
Diana L. King, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency.
Heather Self, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO,
participated in the preparation of the decision.
DIGEST

1. Protest challenging deficiencies evaluated in the protester's proposal is denied
because the agency's evaluation was reasonable and in accordance with the
solicitation.

2. Protest alleging that the agency inconsistently evaluated the protester's proposal
under the organizational experience and past performance factors is denied because
the agency's evaluation was reasonable and in accordance with the solicitation.
DECISION

Network Runners, Inc., a woman-owned small business of Sterling, Virginia, protests
the agency's evaluation of its proposal under request for proposals (RFP) No. N6001 -
18-R-0005, issued by the Department of the Navy, Space and Naval Warfare Systems
Center Pacific, for informational technology (IT) services. The protester argues that:
(1) the agency unreasonably evaluated its proposal as deficient for failing to
demonstrate organizational experience in required key areas; (2) the agency deviated
from the solicitation's stated evaluation criteria; and (3) the agency inconsistently
evaluated its proposal under the organizational experience and past performance
factors.


We deny the protest.
