Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to Decision a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Vysnova Partners, Inc. File: B-420654; B-420654.2; B-420654.3 Date: July 7, 2022 Eric Valle, Esq., Katherine B. Burrows, Esq., and Isaias Alba, Esq., Piliero Mazza PLLC, for the protester. James Braswell, Esq., General Services Administration, for the agency. Mary G. Curcio, Esq., and Jonathan, L. Kang, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that agency unreasonably eliminated offeror's proposal from competition is denied where protester failed to provide required cost/price documentation. 2. Protest that agency failed to conduct clarifications to address required cost/price documentation missing from the protester's proposal is denied where clarifications are not required and where the agency would have been required to engage in discussions, rather than clarifications, to resolve the omission. DECISION Vysnova Partners, Inc., of Landover, Maryland, protests the decision of the General Services Administration (GSA) to reject its proposal submitted in response to task order request for proposals (TOR) No. 47QFCA21 R0058, issued for cybersecurity program support. Vysnova asserts that the agency rejected its proposal for failing to submit documentation that was not required by the solicitation. In the alternative, Vysnova argues that the solicitation contained a latent ambiguity. Vysnova also argues that the agency should have engaged with Vysnova in clarifications to correct any misunderstanding of its proposal. We deny the protest. BACKGROUND The solicitation, for cybersecurity support services, was issued on February 15, 2022, to contract holders under the GSA One Acquisition Solution for Integrated Services
