Michael Willems, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that agency was required to seek clarification before rejecting the protester's proposal as technically unacceptable is dismissed where the protester's proposal took exception to material terms of the solicitation on its face, and the agency was under no obligation to seek clarifications. 2. Protester is not an interested party to challenge other aspects of the agency's evaluation of the protester's proposal where the protester's proposal contains deficiencies that render it ineligible for award. 3. Protest alleging Procurement Integrity Act violation is dismissed when the protester contacted the agency within 14 days of when the protester learned of the alleged violation, but declined to provide the information that the protester believed constituted evidence of the offense to the agency. DECISION Alpine Companies, Inc., a woman-owned small business of Alpine, Utah, protests the award of a contract to Information Systems and Networks Corp. (ISN), of Bethesda, Maryland, under solicitation No. 86614920R0005, issued by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for loan servicing support services. The protester argues the agency erred in evaluating both its and the awardee's proposals. We dismiss the protest.
