          DIGEST

          Protest against elimination of protester's proposal from competitive range is denied
          where record supports the reasonableness of the agency's evaluation of protester's
          proposal as unsatisfactory and not capable of being made acceptable without major
          revisions.
          DECISION

          B&S Transport, Inc., a small business, protests the elimination of its proposal from
          the competitive range by the Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), Defense Supply
          Center Columbus, under request for proposals (RFP) No. SP0700-06-R-7022 to
          implement DLA's Tire Privatization Initiative (TPI). B&S argues that there was no
          reasonable basis for the evaluation of its proposal as unsatisfactory and that it was
          improper for the agency to remove B&S's proposal from the competitive range.

          We deny the protest.!






          1 We granted DLA's request to handle this protest under the express option
          provisions of our Bid Protest Regulations, 4 C.F.R. § 21.10 (2006), which DLA stated
          will allow it to meet its goal of assuming tire management responsibilities from the
          Department of the Army, in accordance with Base Realignment and Closure plans,
          in March 2007.
