          protester.

          DIGEST

          Protest that agency unreasonably evaluated offerors' proposals submitted in
          response to solicitation for telecommunications support services is denied where the
          record shows that the agency's evaluation of proposals was reasonably supported by
          the record.
          DECISION

          Computer Cite protests the award of a contract to D. S. Information Systems
          Corporation (DSIS) by the Department of the Air Force under request for proposals
          (RFP) No. FA5215-05-R-0010, to provide telecommunications support services at
          Hickam Air Force Base (AFB) and other government locations in Hawaii. Computer
          Cite challenges the agency's evaluation and award decision, and alleges that the
          evaluation was tainted by a conflict of interest that makes award to DSIS improper.

          We deny the protest.
