Matter of: Jackson Healthcare, LLC
File:     B-420759.5
Date:     August 26, 2022
Gary J. Campbell, Esq., Kelley Doran, Esq., Julia M. Fox, Esq., and Miles McCann, Esq.,
Perkins Coie LLP, for the protester.
Diane Foose, Esq., Gabriel E. Kennon, Esq., and William Selinger, Esq., Department of
Homeland Security, for the agency.
Paul N. Wengert, Esq., and Tania Calhoun, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO,
participated in the preparation of the decision.
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 where the record shows that the agency reasonably
concluded that the protester's proposal was not among the most highly rated proposals
evaluated.
DECISION
Jackson Healthcare, LLC, of Alpharetta, Georgia, protests the exclusion of its
proposal from the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP)
No. 70CDCR21 R00000008, issued by the Department of Homeland Security (DHS),
Immigrations and Customs Enforcement (ICE), for medical staffing support services.
Jackson argues that DHS misevaluated the firm's proposal and made an unreasonable
competitive range determination.
We deny the protest.
BACKGROUND
On October 5, 2021, the agency issued the RFP to obtain on-site medical staffing
services for detainees at approximately 20 ICE Health Service Corps clinic sites.
