DIGEST Protest against agency past performance evaluation rating protester, the incumbent contractor at nuclear weapons plant, as only satisfactory overall when awardee was rated as outstanding overall is denied, where record supports agency determination that protester has had continuing, significant problems in ensuring that plant is fully able to perform critical mission, necessary to ensure the safety and reliability of the United States nuclear weapons stockpile, of assembling and disassembling nuclear weapons in support of nuclear stockpile life extension and evaluation programs, while the awardee's team has a very good performance record under a number of relevant contracts.
