This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Advanced Designs Corporation File: B-275928; B-275928.2; B-275928.3 Date: April 21, 1997 Kevin C. Golden, Esq., Bayh & Connaughton, for the protester. Ronald S. Perlman, Esq., Porter, Wright, Morris & Arthur, for Enterprise Electronics Corporation, an intervenor. Robert Peterson, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Jacqueline Maeder, Esq., and Paul Lieberman, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Agency properly rejected protester's proposal where the proposal was not submitted in the format called for by the solicitation, failed to satisfy material technical solicitation requirements, and did not provide an unequivocal offer to perform at a firm, fixed price as required by the solicitation. 2. Protester whose proposal was properly rejected as technically unacceptable is not an interested party to challenge acceptability of awardee's proposal where there was another proposal besides the awardee's which was also determined to be eligible for award. DECISION Advanced Designs Corporation protests the rejection of its offer and the award of a contract to Enterprise Electronics Corporation (EEC) under request for proposals (RFP) No. N65236-96-R-0015, issued by the Department of the Navy for a supplemental weather radar (SWR) system in both fixed-site and transportable configurations. Advanced Designs contends that the Navy failed to properly evaluate its proposal. The protester also alleges that EEC's proposal failed to satisfy the requirements of the solicitation and that the agency improperly held discussions with EEC. We deny the protest. The RFP, issued on June 26, 1996, solicited offers for a firm, fixed-price contract for a base year (lot I) and four 1-year options (lots II through IX) to produce, install and provide support for an SWR system, including fixed-site Doppler weather radar
