Date:     March 18, 2022
Joseph M. Goldstein, Esq., and Diana C. Mendez, Esq., Shutts & Bowen LLP, for the

DIGEST
Agency reasonably assessed significant weaknesses in protester's proposal where the
solicitation clearly required detailed information demonstrating an offeror's experience,
understanding, and capabilities, but protester's proposal contained only summary
information.
DECISION
Spathe Systems LLC, of Tampa, Florida, protests the issuance of a task order by the
Department of Defense, U.S. Special Operations Command (USSOCOM), to Threat
Tec, LLC, pursuant to request for proposals (RFP) No. SCS210001 to provide
language, regional expertise, and cultural (LREC) program support. Spathe asserts that
the agency improperly assessed significant weaknesses in Spathe's proposal.

We deny the protest.
