DIGEST
1. Protest that the agency unreasonably evaluated the protester's proposal is denied
where the record shows the evaluation was consistent with the firm's technical
approach, the solicitation's terms, and applicable procurement statutes and regulations.
2. Protest that the agency improperly excluded the protester's proposal from the
competitive range is denied because the record shows the agency reasonably
concluded that the protester's proposal was not among the most highly rated proposals
evaluated by the agency.

its proposal from the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP)
