DIGEST Protest that agency misevaluated awardee's proposal is denied where record shows that agency evaluated proposals consistent with solicitation and applicable statutes and regulations. DECISION SOS International, Ltd., of Reston, Virginia, protests the award of a contract to McNeil Technologies, of Springfield, Virginia, under Department of the Army, Army Material Command (AMC) request for proposals (RFP) No. W52PlJ-09-R-0079, for advisory, atmospheric and analysis support services for U.S. forces in Iraq. SOS asserts that the agency misevaluated McNeil's proposal. We deny the protest. BACKGROUND The solicitation sought proposals for an indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract for a 6-month base period, with three 6-month option periods. Award was to be made on a best value basis; technical proposals initially were to be evaluated on a go/no-go basis and those rated go would then be evaluated for past performance and price, with past performance being deemed significantly more important than price. RFP at 53-55. Regarding the past performance evaluation, risk ratings were to be assigned based on past performance questionnaire (PPQ)
