Douglas McArthur, Esq., and Michael R. Golden, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protests against selection decision are denied where record shows that source selection authority considered major discriminators favoring selection of protester and reasonably determined that they did notjustify the considerable price premium associated with the proposal. DECISION Olin Corporation protests the award of two contracts to Alliant Techsystems, Inc., for procurement of small caliber ammunition and for the use of facilities at Lake City Army Ammunition Plant (LCAAP), under requests for proposals (RFP) Nos. DAAA09-98-R-0121 and DAA09-99-R-0088, issued by the U.S. Army Industrial Operations Command (IOC), in Illinois, a subordinate command of the Army Materiel Command (AMC). Olin essentially contends that the evaluation and selection decisions here were unreasonable. We deny the protests.
