handle is hein.gao/gaocrptaean0001 and id is 1 raw text is: Comptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE A protected decision was issued on the date below and was subject to a GAO Protective Order. This version has been redacted or approved by the parties involved for public release. Matter of: Morrison Knudsen Corporation File: B-270703 Date: April 11, 1996 E. Sanderson Hoe, Esq., and Melvina C. Ford, Esq., McKenna & Cuneo, for the protester. Rochelle L. White, Esq., Brown & Root, Inc., an intervenor. David C. Rickard, Esq., Defense Nuclear Agency, for the agency. Sylvia Schatz, Esq., David A. Ashen, Esq., and John M. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest against award to offeror whose proposal received a lower technical score from the source selection evaluation board than protester's and only offered a slightly lower evaluated cost is sustained where a primary basis for the source selection authority's decision to disregard the evaluation scores was not supported by the record. DECISION Morrison Knudsen Corporation (MK) protests the award of a contract to Brown & Root (B&R) under request for proposals (RFP) No. DNA001-95-R-0026, issued by the Defense Nuclear Agency (DNA) for the dismantlement and elimination of intercontinental ballistic missile (ICBM) silos at four sites in the Republic of Kazakhstan. MK argues that the source selection decision was based on a misreading of the proposals. We sustain the protest. The RFP contemplated the award of a 39-month cost-plus-fixed-fee contract for elimination of the missile and launch control complexes, supporting structures, and underground facilities, burial or removal of the debris and removal of salvageable materials, and general restoration of the sites to their original topography so as to facilitate civilian use. The RFP stated that the contractor could either buy new equipment that would become the property of the U.S. government or use contractor-owned or leased equipment. 503830
