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: SeaTech Security Solutions; Apogee Group, LLC File: B-419969.6; B-419969.7 Date: April 21, 2023 Antonio R. Franco, Esq., Katherine B. Burrows, Esq., Jacqueline K. Unger, Esq., Kevin T. Barnett, Esq., and Daniel J. Figuenick III, Esq., Piliero Mazza, for SeaTech Security Solutions; Nicole D. Pottroff, Esq., Shane J. McCall, Esq., John L. Holtz, Esq., Stephanie L. Ellis, Esq., and Gregory P. Weber, Esq., Koprince McCall Pottroff LLC, for Apogee Group, LLC, the protesters. Robert K. Tompkins, Esq., Gregory H. Koger, Esq., Kelsey M. Hayes, Esq., Richard Ariel, Esq., and Sean R. Belanger, Esq., Holland & Knight LLP, for K2 Construction Consultants, Inc., the intervenor. Eric M. Steinberg, Esq., and Brian C. Habib, Esq., Department of Homeland Security, for the agency. Heather Self, Esq., and Peter H. Tran, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protests challenging the agency's evaluation of awardee's past performance are denied where, consistent with the terms of the solicitation, the agency reasonably found the awardee's past performance to be relevant. 2. Protester's contention that the agency unreasonably evaluated the protester's proposal is denied where the protester's arguments reflect nothing more than disagreement with the agency's evaluation. Further, the protester's characterization of the agency's discussions as misleading is not supported by the record, which shows the protester made its own independent business judgment regarding how to respond to the agency's identified concerns. 3. Protester's argument that the agency unreasonably assessed its proposal with a negative finding is denied because the alleged evaluation error did not result in competitive prejudice to the protester.
