Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States Decision Matter of: High Noon Unlimited Inc. File: B-419268 Date: January 12, 2021 Dr. George B. Inabinet III, High Noon Unlimited Inc., for the protester. Wade L. Brown, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Stephanie B. Magnell, Esq., and Evan C. Williams, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Challenge to the exclusion of the protester's proposal from the competitive range is denied where the agency reasonably found that the proposal failed to comply with the terms of the solicitation. 2. Protest that the agency should have opened discussions and permitted the protester to revise its unacceptable proposal is denied, where the agency had no obligation to do so. DECISION High Noon Unlimited Inc., a small business of Holiday, Florida, protests the decision by the Department of the Army to exclude High Noon from the competitive range in the competition of request for proposals (RFP) No. W911 QY-20-R-0010, which was issued for parachutist flotation devices (PFDs). High Noon argues that to the extent its proposal contained obvious errors or missing information, the agency was required to contact High Noon, ask for the correct or missing information, and allow High Noon to complete or correct its proposal as necessary. We deny the protest. BACKGROUND On May 7, 2020, the Army issued the RFP in accordance with the procedures of Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) part 15, Contracting by Negotiation. See RFP
