Maintenance & Services, Inc. under request for proposals (RFP) No. N62477-95-R-
0099, issued by the Department of the Navy for base family housing maintenance at
the Naval Air Station in Patuxent River, Maryland. All Star argues that the Navy's
evaluation of the offerors' proposals and its subsequent best value determination
were unreasonable.

We deny the protest.

The solicitation, issued August 18, 1995, anticipated the award of a combination
fixed-price, indefinite quantity contract to be performed over 1 base year, with up to
