          DIGEST

          1. Protest that agency performed an unreasonable cost realism analysis is denied
          where agency reasonably concluded that the awardee could hire qualified personnel
          at its proposed labor rates.

          2. Protest that agency unreasonably assigned protester an acceptable technical
          rating and awardee an outstanding rating is denied where the agency reasonably
          determined that the awardee, unlike the protester, proposed a detailed approach to
          accomplishing all of the solicitation requirements, as well as innovations and
          resources to better meet the needs of the agency and the personnel it serves.
          DECISION

          Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), of McLean, Virginia, protests
          the Department of the Navy's issuance of a task order to Lockheed Martin Integrated
          Systems, Inc., of Bethesda, Maryland, under request for proposals (RFP) No.
          N00024-1 1 -R-3341, for information technology services and systems support (ITSS)
          for the Navy Personnel Command. SAIC challenges the agency's evaluation of the
          technical proposals, and the cost realism evaluation of Lockheed Martin's proposal.

          We deny the protest.

          The solicitation was issued to holders of SeaPort-Enhanced multiple award
          contracts. The RFP provided for issuance of a cost-plus-fixed-fee task order, for a
          base year with 2 option years, to the vendor whose proposal represented the best
          value considering five factors: technical approach, corporate experience, past
