         Matter of:  Innovative Management, Inc.

         File:       B-292818; B-292818.2

         Date:       November  7, 2003

         Johnathan M. Bailey, Esq., Law Offices of Theodore M. Bailey, for the protester.
         Glen C. Etelson, Esq., and Deborah L. Moran, Esq., Shulman, Rogers, Gandal, Pordy
         & Ecker, P.A. and Lawrence J. Sklute, Esq., Sklute & Associates, for Choctaw
         Management/Services Enterprise, an intervenor.
         Clarence D. Long, III, Esq., and David M. Hill, Esq., Department of the Air Force, for
         the agency.
         Paul E. Jordan, Esq., and John M. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO,
         participated in the preparation of the decision.
         DIGEST

         1. In past performance confidence assessment, where relevance of offerors'
         performance was the primary basis for the rating, agency reasonably evaluated
         awardee's performance record--with more relevant contracts--superior to the
         protester's despite offerors' similar records of very good to excellent performance on
         their respective contracts.

         2. In evaluation of awardee's proposed professional compensation plan, where
         agency considered that awardee's labor rates were lower than those paid under
         current contract, but determined that overall compensation plan, including some
         benefits not enjoyed by current employees, was comparable to that of the current
         contractor, agency reasonably evaluated awardee's plan favorably under
         requirements of Federal Acquisition Regulation § 52.222-46.
         DECISION

         Innovative Management, Inc. (IMI) protests the award of a contract to Choctaw
         Management/Services Enterprise (CMSE) under request for proposals (RFP)
         No. F41622-03-R-0003, issued by the Department of the Air Force for Family
         Advocacy Program (FAP) services. IMI challenges the evaluation and award
         determination.


We deny the protest.
