          Decision

          Matter  of:  Sabre Systems, Inc.

          File:        B-402040.2; B-402040.3

          Date:        June 1, 2010

          Lee P. Curtis, Esq., Troy E. Hughes, Esq., and Maggie L.C. Greenlee, Esq., Perkins

          Claude P. Goddard, Esq., Daniel J. Donohue, Esq., and Sarah M. Graves, Esq., Husch

          participated in the preparation of the decision.
          DIGEST

          1. Where statement of work required effective communication at various levels and
          maintenance of control documents such as customer service administrator (CSA)
          manuals, evaluation of protester's proposal was unobjectionable where record
          shows agency reasonably assessed weaknesses based on failure to identify the role
          and functions of additional person in communication initiative and absence of
          sufficient detail on CSA manual updates.

          2. Where evaluated defects in protester's proposed work breakdown structure and
          communication  initiative first appeared in revised proposal, agency was not required
          to reopen discussions to give protester an opportunity to remedy those defects.
          DECISION

          Sabre Systems, Inc., of Warminster, Pennsylvania, protests the issuance of a task
          order to STG, Inc., of Reston, Virginia, under solicitation No. D-09-HQ-Q-0022, issued
          by the Department of Justice, Drug Enforcement Administration (DEA), for
          information technology support services. Sabre challenges the evaluation of its
          proposal.


We  deny the protest.
