Schroeder, Esq., Issac D. Schabes, Esq., and Karla V. Perez Chacon, Esq., Crowell & Moring LLP, for the protester. Carla J. Weiss, Esq., David B. Robbins, Esq., Noah B. Bleicher, Esq., Moshe B.

Seemann, Esq., National Aeronautics and Space Administration, for the agency. Kasia Dourney, Esq., and Alexander O. Levine, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest alleging that awardee gained an unfair competitive advantage based on employment of a former government official is denied where the agency, after conducting an investigation of the alleged conflict of interest, reasonably concluded that the former official did not have access to non-public, competitively useful information. 2. Protest alleging that agency conducted misleading discussions is denied where the record shows that while the agency twice raised a concern about past performance, and later indicated that it considered the issue resolved, the responses did not fully resolve the agency's concern; nonetheless, the record shows no reasonable possibility that the protester was competitively prejudiced by any error that may have occurred. 3. Protest alleging that agency improperly awarded a competitive 8(a) set-aside contract to an ineligible joint venture is denied where the Small Business Administration's regulations no longer require that the agency approve joint ventures for competitive 8(a) awards. DECISION ASRC Federal System Solutions, LLC (AFSS), a small business of Beltsville, Maryland, protests the award of a contract to RSi-QuantiTech JV, LLC (RSi-QT), also a small business of Huntsville, Alabama, under request for proposals (RFP) No.
