             Decision





             Matter of: Dual, Inc.

             File:       B-279295

             Date:       June 1, 1998

             Kevin M. Kordziel, Esq., Jenner & Block, for the protester.
             Kacie A. Haberly, Esq., General Services Administration, for the agency.
             John L. Formica, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General
             Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
             DIGEST

             Agency reasonably evaluated the protester's proposal under the solicitation's
             relevant corporate experience evaluation factor as technically unacceptable, where
             the proposal did not evidence sufficient experience in a required area, and the
             references listed in the protester's proposal and contacted by the agency did not
             indicate that the protester had the requisite experience.
             DECISION

             Dual, Inc. protests the rejection of its proposal as technically unacceptable under
             request for proposals (RFP) No. FCXA-FA-970003-N, issued by the General Services
             Administration (GSA), for non-mandatory, multiple award federal supply schedule
             (FSS) contracts encompassing management, organizational and business
             improvement services (MOBIS).

             We deny the protest.

             Non-mandatory, multiple award FSS contracts are indefinite-delivery contracts
             under which commercial firms may provide government agencies with commonly
             used goods and services for given periods of time. Government ordering activities
             can order goods or services under simplified procedures from the contracts to meet
             their requirements. In this case, vendors that responded to this RFP and are
             awarded a contract by GSA will be listed on the FSS, and an agency needing MOBIS
             may, after making a best value determination, place a task or delivery order, based
             on a fixed price, with the selected vendor.

             The RFP, issued on April 4, 1997, requested proposals for a contract period from
             the date of award through September 30, 2002, with one 5-year option period. The
             MOBIS contractors are to provide a full range of services and products for
             consulting, facilitation, surveys and training, which will permit the agencies to begin
