DIGEST

Protest challenging various aspects of an agency's evaluation of proposals is denied
where the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the solicitation.
DECISION

Resource  Management  Concepts, Inc. (RMC), a small business of Lexington Park,
Maryland, protests the issuance of a task order to Solutions Development Corporation
(SDC), a small business of King George, Virginia, under request for proposals (RFP)
No. N001 7822R3013,  issued by the Department of the Navy, Naval Surface Warfare
Center, for technical and support services related to Navy sensor systems. The
protester alleges that the agency unreasonably evaluated the protester's proposal,
applied unstated evaluation criteria, and failed to assign certain strengths to the
protester's proposal.

We  deny the protest.

Regulation subpart 16.5 to small business holders of the Navy's SeaPort Next
