Decision


Matter of:  Tactical Network Corporation

File:        B-418962.2

Date:     November 30, 2020

Timothy J. Antrim, Tactical Network Corporation, the protester.
Alexis J. Bernstein, Esq., and Josephine R. Farinelli, Esq., Department of the Air Force,
for the agency.
Paul N. Wengert, Esq., and Tania Calhoun, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO,
participated in the preparation of the decision.
DIGEST

Protest that agency misevaluated protester's total evaluated price is denied where the
price evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the solicitation, and protester did
not show any error in the agency's pricing calculations, but instead based its argument
on its own mathematical fallacy; allegation that agency improperly changed total
evaluated price calculation is denied where, even assuming the change reflected an
error in logic, it was implemented equally for both the protester and awardee so the
protester could not show that the change resulted in competitive prejudice.
DECISION

Tactical Network Corporation, of Peachtree City, Georgia, a small business, protests the
award of a contract to Filius Corporation, of Centreville, Virginia, also a small business,
under request for proposals (RFP) No. FA8217-20-R-5000, issued by the Department of
the Air Force for sustainment and contractor logistics support for Tactical Air Operations
Module AN/TYQ-23A(V)1   and ancillary equipment at multiple Air Force facilities. The
protester contends that the Air Force misevaluated its total evaluated price.

We  deny the protest.

BACKGROUND

The RFP,  issued October 18, 2019, sought proposals from small businesses to provide
services under an indefinite-delivery, indefinite-quantity (IDIQ) contract for a 5-year
