Milburn High School File: B-277018 Date: August 19, 1997 Robert H. Crosby for the protester. Nicholas P. Retson, Esq., and Thomas J. Duffy, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Paula A. Williams, Esq., and Susan K McAuliffe, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protester's contention that agency misevaluated its proposal is denied where the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and in accordance with the stated evaluation factors. 2. Contention that agency improperly made award on the basis of initial proposals is denied where the record shows that the solicitation clearly indicated the agency's intent to make award without discussions if possible, and the selection official reasonably determined on the basis of the evaluation results that the technically superior, lower-priced offer represented the best value under the solicitation's evaluation scheme. DECISION Richard M. Milburn High School protests the award of a contract to Central Texas College (CTC) under request for proposals (RFP) No. DAKF11-96-R-0034, issued by the Department of the Army for foreign language training services. Milburn challenges the agency's evaluation of its proposal and argues that the agency improperly failed to conduct discussions.1 We deny the protest. The RFP sought offers to provide foreign language training services to Army Forces Command (FORSCOM) active duty and reserve personnel in three regional areas--I 1Milburn also argued in its protest that the agency failed to request revised price proposals and showed evaluator bias in favor of the awardee. In its comments on the agency report, Milburn withdrew these allegations.
