approved for public release.
Matter of: Yang Enterprises, Inc.
File:     B-418922.4; B-418922.6
Date:     May 20, 2021
Damien C. Specht, Esq., James A. Tucker, Esq., and Victoria Dalcourt Angle, Esq.,
Morrison & Foerster LLP, for the protester.
Scott R. Williamson, Esq., and Daniel R. Williamson, Esq., Williamson Law Group, LLC,
for Chugach Range and Facilities Services JV, LLC, the intervenor.

Alexander O. Levine, Esq., and Jennifer D. Westfall-McGrail, Esq., Office of the General

DIGEST
1. Protest challenging the agency's evaluation of protester's past performance is
denied where the record shows that the agency's evaluation was reasonable and
consistent with the terms of the solicitation.
2. Protest challenging the agency's favorable assessment of the awardee's past
performance based on the past performance of one of the awardee's joint venture
participants is sustained. The evaluation approach was inconsistent with the terms of
the solicitation, which limited the use of past performance information from joint venture
participants to the areas where the participant would perform the effort.
3. Protest asserting that the agency unreasonably failed to assign strengths to aspects
of the protester's technical approach is denied where the agency reasonably considered
the technical approaches to meet, but not exceed, the agency's requirements.

request for proposals (RFP) No. FA2521-19-R-A017, issued by the Department of the
Air Force for mission and base operations services at Ascension Auxiliary Air Field, on
Ascension Island in the South Atlantic. The protester argues that the agency
unreasonably evaluated Yang's and CRFS's past performance, unreasonably ignored
