DIGEST Protest that the awardee's quotation contained a material misrepresentation concerning the availability of a proposed key person is sustained where the record shows that the awardee's quotation stated the awardee had contingent offers for key personnel, but the identified individual stated that they were exclusively committed to another firm, did not consent to the use of their name or qualifications in the awardee's quotation, and did not accept a contingent offer of employment. In addition, the record shows that the misrepresentations had a material effect on the agency's evaluation of the awardee's quotation.
