handle is hein.gao/gaomat0001 and id is 1 raw text is: 1Oo U.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE A Century of Non-Partisan Fact-Based Work 441 G St. N.W. Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States Decision Matter of: People, Technology and Processes, LLC File: B-418781.4 Date: July 2, 2021 Victor L. Buonamia, for the protester. Major Mark T. Robinson, and Major Aaron K. McCartney, Department of the Army, for the agency. Raymond Richards, Esq., and John Sorrenti, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest arguing that an agency's decision to reevaluate the quoted professional compensation pursuant to Federal Acquisition Regulation provision 52.222-46 is insufficient to remedy a previously protested failure to review the realism of prices is denied where the record shows that this decision is reasonable, consistent with the terms of the unique solicitation at issue, and the protester cannot claim to be competitively prejudiced by the agency's intended approach. DECISION People, Technology and Processes, LLC (PTP), a service-disabled veteran-owned small business of Tampa, Florida, protests the scope of the agency's corrective action taken following PTP's prior protest of the issuance of a task order under request for quotations (RFQ) No. W9124L20R0020. The task order was issued by the Department of the Army for personnel to instruct the joint fires observers (JFO) course at Fort Sill, Oklahoma. The protester argues that the agency's corrective action in response to a previous protest fails to include an evaluation of price realism and fails to resolve a latent ambiguity in the solicitation.1 We deny the protest. 1 The protester here proceeded without legal counsel and no protective order was issued in this protest. The agency filed both a protected and redacted version of its report with our Office. Our discussion here references the redacted version of the report, when possible, and is necessarily general in nature in order to avoid reference to non-public information.
