             File:       B-276247

             Date:       May 27, 1997

             Amy Freeman, Esq., Buel White, Esq., and Brian A. Mizoguchi, Esq., Verner, Liipfert,

             DIGEST

             1. Protest that contracting agency improperly evaluated proposals is denied where
             the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with all of the
             evaluation factors and subfactors.

             2. Protest that contracting agency improperly utilized an unstated factor as a best
             value determinant is denied where the alleged unstated factor was simply an
             additional consideration to a rationale which, by itself, fully supported the source
             selection authority's determination that the higher-priced, higher technically rated
             proposal represented the best value to the government.

             DECISION

             Brisk Waterproofing Company, Inc. protests the award of a contract to Waters
             Craftsmen, Inc. under request for proposals (RFP) No. N62477-95-R-0027, issued by
             the Department of the Navy for the historic preservation and restoration of the U.S.
             Naval Academy Chapel in Annapolis, Maryland. Brisk argues that the Navy's
             evaluation of proposals and source selection decision were improper.

             We deny the protest.

             The successful offeror would be awarded a fixed-price contract to perform exterior
             masonry and dome/roof repairs at the Chapel, with options to perform site repairs
             and door and window repairs. Award would be made, without discussions, to the
             offeror whose proposal was deemed the best value to the government, considering
             technical/management factors and price. Technical/management factors were more
             important than price.
