          Decision

          Matter of: Albert Moving & Storage

          File:        B-290733; B-290733.2

          Date:        September 23, 2002

          Kenneth S. Nankin, Esq., Nankin & Verma, and Brian W. Craver, Esq.,
          Person & Craver, for the protester.
          Warren D. Leishman, Esq., and Gregory H. Petkoff, Esq., Department of the

          Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Michael R. Golden, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,

          DIGEST

          1. Where solicitation defined a satisfactory past performance rating as permissibly
          encompassing minor problems which were satisfactorily corrected, agency
          reasonably rated awardee's past performance as satisfactory, based on the
          agency's consideration of various past performance information, including a past
          performance questionnaire, the awardee's response to certain performance
          problems, and other additional information submitted by the awardee.

          2. Agency reasonably included awardee's proposal in the competitive range where
          contracting officer considered and documented various deficiencies that existed in
          awardee's initial proposal and concluded they were not significant enough to require
          proposal's elimination from the competitive range.
          DECISION

          Albert Moving & Storage protests the Department of the Air Force's contract awards
          to Ace Movers and Dwight Transfer & Storage under request for proposals (RFP)
          No. F41612-01-R-0119 to perform services related to shipment of personal property
          for Department of Defense personnel moving to or from Sheppard Air Force Base
          (SAFB), Texas. Albert protests that the agency misevaluated proposals with regard
          to past performance and that Dwight's proposal should not have been included in the
          competitive range.


We deny the protest.
