         Matter of:   Science Applications International Corporation

         File:        B-407105; B-407105.2

         Date:        November 1,2012

         Gregory H. Petkoff, Esq., D. Joe Smith, Esq., Matthew L. Haws, Esq., Carla J.
         Weiss, Esq., Edwin 0. Childs, Esq., and Leslie Harrelson, Esq., WilmerHale LLP,
         for the protester.
         Carl J. Peckinpaugh, Esq., and Shaun C. Kennedy, Esq., for Computer Sciences
         Corporation, an intervenor.
         Maj. Brent A. Cotton and Max D. Houtz, Esq., Defense Intelligence Agency, for the
         agency.
         Tania Calhoun, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
         GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
         DIGEST

         1. Protest that agency improperly evaluated awardee's technical proposal is
         sustained where the record shows that the agency did not reasonably consider the
         awardee's proposed technical approach, which included using large numbers of
         uncleared personnel to perform the solicitation's requirements.

         2. Protest that agency failed to perform a reasonable price realism evaluation is
         sustained where the solicitation provided for evaluating offerors' prices for realism,
         the awardee's price proposal indicated that its low price was due to a particular
         technical approach, and the agency did not reasonably consider this technical
         approach in conducting its price realism assessment.
         DECISION

         Science Applications International Corporation (SAIC), of Chantilly, Virginia,
         protests the decision by the Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) to award a task
         order to Computer Sciences Corporation (CSC), of Falls Church, Virginia, under
         task order request (TOR) No. HHM402-12-R-0087, for intelligence analysis support
         of the ORION Analytical Capability (ORION 02) program. SAIC primarily argues
         that DIA improperly evaluated technical and price proposals and made an improper
         source selection decision.
