Barnes, Esq., and Christina Sklarew, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest that terms of solicitation do not adequately communicate the agency's requirements is denied where the solicitation provides sufficient information to enable offerors to compete intelligently and on a relatively equal basis. DECISION Anders Construction, Inc., a small business of Harvey, Louisiana, protests the terms of request for proposals (RFP) No. W912P821 R0042, issued by the Department of the Army, Army Corps of Engineers, for professional diving services.

We deny the protest.
