File: B-287398; B-287398.2 Date: June 18, 2001 Janice Davis, Esq., Davis & Steele, for the protester. Robert E. Gregg, Esq., and Karen R.

Westfall-McGrail, Esq., and Christine S. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Contracting agency reasonably determined that protester's performance under predecessor contract was entitled to greatest weight in its past performance evaluation and that performance of protester's proposed subcontractor on related contracts was entitled to little weight where subcontractor was to perform only approximately 20 percent of the solicited effort. 2. Contracting agency reasonably attributed past performance of subcontractor's subsidiary to the subcontractor where subsidiary and subcontractor share key management personnel. 3. Contracting agency reasonably viewed awardee's proposal as stronger than protester's under management approach factor where awardee furnished more detailed information regarding risk mitigation and staff recruitment procedures in its proposal. DECISION Strategic Resources, Inc. (SRI) protests the award of a contract to Manufacturing Engineering Systems, Inc. (MESI) under request for proposals (RFP) No. N00140-00- R-4046, issued by the Department of the Navy, Fleet and Industrial Supply Center, for academic services in support of the Navy College Program in the western U.S. and the Pacific.
