handle is hein.gao/gaobaebad0001 and id is 1 raw text is: G&O U.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE 441 G St. N.W. Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States Decision Matter of: DGCI Corporation File: B-418494 Date: April 27, 2020 Ayman Bekdash, for the protester. Christopher J. Robbins, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Michael P. Grogan, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protester is not an interested party to challenge the terms of the solicitation when, even if the protest is sustained, the protester would be ineligible for award under the remaining terms of the solicitation. DECISION DGCI Corporation, of McLean, Virginia, protests the terms of request for proposals (RFP) No. N62470-20-R-4001, issued by the Department of the Navy, for design-build construction services at Naval Air Station Sigonella in Sicily, Italy. The protester argues that the solicitation unduly restricts competition by requiring prime contractors to have a specialized certification to perform the work, and that the agency's basis for evaluation is flawed. We dismiss the protest because the protester is not an interested party. On January 16, 2020, the Navy issued the solicitation under the two-phase design-build provisions of Federal Acquisition Regulation subpart 36.3, for construction services at the fleet maintenance facility on Naval Air Station Sigonella in Sicily, Italy. Agency Report (AR), Tab 5, RFP at 4. The RFP contemplates the award of a fixed-price contract to the offeror whose proposal conforms to the solicitation and represents the best value to the government, considering technical and price evaluation factors, using a tradeoff selection process. Id. Under phase one of the competition, the agency will evaluate offerors on three factors: technical approach; corporate experience; and past performance. Id. at 11. The agency will then select the most highly qualified offerors to submit phase two proposals.
