File:     B-417704.7; B-417704.8
Date:     June 8, 2021
Robert Nichols, Esq., David Bodenheimer, Esq., Sam Van Kopp, Esq., and Andrew

DIGEST
1. Protester's contention that the awardee's proposal contained a material
misrepresentation that should have caused the agency to find the proposal ineligible for
award is denied where the record does not support a finding that any error in the
proposal was material, was relied on by the agency, or had a significant impact on the
evaluation.
2. Challenges to the agency's evaluation of the technical and cost/price proposals are
denied where the evaluations were reasonable and consistent with procurement
regulations and the solicitation.
3. Protest that the agency failed to give meaningful consideration to a corporate
transaction involving the awardee is denied where the record provides no basis on
which to find that the transaction will have a significant impact on cost or contract
performance.
DECISION
PAE Aviation and Technical Services, LLC, of Arlington, Virginia, protests the award of
a contract to DynCorp International LLC, of Fort Worth, Texas, under request for
proposals (RFP) No. 70B02C18R00000063, issued by the Department of Homeland
Security, United States Customs and Border Protection (CBP), for national aviation
logistics and support. PAE asserts that DynCorp's proposal contained a material
misrepresentation, that DynCorp failed to inform CBP of a corporate transaction
