B-262236.2 1 (1996-01-18)

handle is hein.gao/gaocrptadsb0001 and id is 1 raw text is: Comptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision Matter of: Intown Properties, Inc. File: B-262236.2; B-262237.2 Date: January 18, 1996 Melton Harrell for the protester. Arnette L. Georges, Esq., Department of Housing and Urban Development, for the agency. John L. Formica, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Agency unreasonably evaluated protester's best and final offer (BAFO) submitted in response to solicitations for real estate acquisition management services where the protester, in response to discussions informing the protester that certain of its personnel were not considered qualified, proposed different personnel in its BAFO, but the agency did not consider this when determining the protester's low-priced BAFO to be unacceptable. DECISION Intown Properties, Inc. protests the award of two contracts to Asset Management Specialist, Inc., (AMS) under request for proposals (RFP) Nos. H02R95064000000 (RFP-40) and H02R95064100000 (RFP-41), issued by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for real estate acquisition management (REAM) services. Intown, the incumbent contractor under RFP-40, argues that the agency's evaluation of its proposal and the selection of AMS for the awards were unreasonable. We sustain the protests. The RFPs provided for the awards of firm, fixed-price, indefinite quantity contracts for the performance of REAM services in the city of Camden (RFP-40), and Camden (excluding the city of Camden), Burlington, Mercer, and Gloucester counties, New Jersey (RFP-41).1 The contractor(s) under the RFPs will be responsible for preserving and protecting single family properties owned or in the custody of HUD and located in these areas until the units are sold to the public or accepted by nonprofit organizations. 1The RFPs are identical except for the different geographic locations. 1012116
