DIGEST

1. Protest challenging the evaluation of an awardee's technical proposal as
noncompliant with the terms of the solicitation is denied; based on the terms of the
solicitation, the agency reasonably considered the awardee's proposed level of
premium  pay because the discussion of premium pay did not include actual labor rates.

2. Protests challenging the evaluation of proposals under the technical/management
factor are denied where the evaluation was conducted reasonably and in accordance
with the terms of the solicitation.

3. Protest challenging the evaluation of proposals under the past performance factor is
denied where the evaluation was conducted reasonably and in accordance with the
terms of the solicitation.

4. Protest challenging the agency's affirmative determinations of responsibility is
dismissed in part as raising an issue not for GAO's consideration, and in part as
untimely.
