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: OBXtek, Inc. File: B-417880; B-417880.2; B-417881 Date: November 25, 2019 Aron C. Beezley, Esq., Sarah Osborne, Esq., Lisa Markman, Esq., and Patrick R. Quigley, Esq., Bradley Arant Boult Cummings LLP, for the protester. James Y. Boland, Esq., Christina Wood, Esq., and Michael Francel, Esq., Venable LLP, for Amyx, Inc., the intervenor. Ian F. Rothfuss, Esq., and John G. Terra, Esq., Defense Health Agency, for the agency. Michael Willems, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging the agency's rejection of the protester's proposals as unacceptable is denied where the solicitations provided that offerors proposing compensation inadequate to attract and retain qualified personnel would be ineligible for award, and the agency reasonably concluded that the protester's proposed compensation was inadequate. DECISION OBXtek, Inc., a small business of Tysons Corner, Virginia, challenges the issuance of two task orders to Amyx, Inc., a small business of Reston, Virginia, under request for proposal (RFP) Nos. HT005019R0001 and HT005019R0002 issued by the Defense Health Agency under the General Services Administration's (GSA) One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services (OASIS) multiple-award, indefinite-delivery, indefinite- quantity (IDIQ) contract for contracting and program management support services and acquisition support services, respectively. The protester primarily alleges that the agency unreasonably rejected its proposals for failing to adequately justify its low proposed labor rates. We deny the protests.
