         Decision

         File:      B-286063

         Date:      November 1, 2000

         G.R. Erick Mead, II, Esq., Clark, Partington, Hart, Larry, Bond & Stackhouse, for the
         protester.
         Wilson J. Campbell, Esq., Naval Facilities Engineering Command, for the agency.

         DIGEST

         Agency decision to exclude proposal for renovation of barracks from the
         competitive range was reasonable where offeror failed to include mechanical
         systems in its floor plans, did not provide required narratives of specified systems,
         but merely offered to provide systems in accordance with solicitation requirements,
         and did not offer the required number of beds for two barracks.
         DECISION

         Speegle Construction, Inc. protests the exclusion of its proposal from the

         performance, small business subcontracting effort, technical qualifications, technical
         solutions and price. Technical proposals were due on June 5. Speegle submitted its
         technical proposal on June 2. Speegle also submitted a modification to its technical
         proposal on June 16, but the agency did not consider it because it was submitted
         after the June 5 closing date. A technical evaluation board evaluated the technical
         proposals and rated Speegle's unacceptable under the technical solutions factor
         because Speegle's floor plans did not include space for mechanical systems, and the
         proposal did not provide required narratives with respect to the plumbing, HVAC,
         electrical, telecommunication and fire protection systems and did not offer the
