          Decision

          Matter of: Trawick Contractors, Inc.

          File:        B-291237

          Date:        November 20, 2002

          John T. Flynn, Esq., Smith, Currie & Hancock LLP, for the protester.
          Catherine L. Horan, Esq. and Damon Martin, Esq., Naval Facilities Engineering
          Command, for the agency.
          Sharon L. Larkin, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General
          Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
          DIGEST

          Protest that agency improperly evaluated technical qualifications of key personnel is
          denied where protester failed to correct deficiencies, despite discussions, and the
          agency's conclusions were reasonable and in accord with the solicitation's stated
          evaluation criteria.
          DECISION

          Trawick Contractors, Inc. protests the award of a contract to TJC Engineering, Inc.
          under request for proposals (RFP) N62467-01-R-0372, issued by the Naval Facilities
          Engineering Command, Southern Division, for the renovation of military family
          housing at the Naval Air Station in Meridian, Mississippi. Trawick challenges the
          reasonableness of the Navy's evaluation of the qualifications of two proposed key
          construction personnel.

          We deny the protest.

          The RFP provided for the award of a fixed-price contract for the second phase of a
          renovation and construction project for 118 military housing units.' Award was to be
          made on a best value basis, considering four technical factors--past performance,
          small business subcontracting plan, technical qualifications, and technical solutions--


          1 The first phase of construction, which involved the renovation and construction of
          another 120 housing units, is currently being performed by Trawick under a separate
          contract.
