DIGEST 1.

Protest that the agency failed to conduct meaningful discussions is denied where discussions identified all deficiencies, significant weaknesses and weaknesses in the protester's proposal and were not misleading.

The task order is for contractor operations and logistics support services for Special Operations Command (SOCOM) tactical airborne multi- sensor platforms (STAMP).

We deny the protest.
