Matter of: Rodgers Travel, Inc. File: B-405007.13 Date: February 19, 2013 Mark Pestronk, Esq., for the protester. Hattie DuBois, Esq., Department of Defense, Defense Human Resources Activity, for the agency. Kenneth Kilgour, Esq., and David A. Ashen, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest is denied where protester fails to demonstrate that agency's evaluation of proposal as unacceptable for failure to clearly indicate staffing for travel management services locations, and resulting exclusion of proposal from competitive range, were unreasonable. DECISION Rodgers Travel, Inc., of Wayne, Pennsylvania, protests the exclusion of its proposal from the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP) No. H9821 0-1 0-R- 0006, issued by the Defense Human Resources Activity, on behalf of the Defense Travel Management Office, for travel management services to support the commercial travel office. Rodgers challenges the agency's evaluation of its proposal. We deny the protest. The RFP, a small business set-aside, was for the award of an indefinite- quantity/indefinite-delivery, fixed-price contract, RFP at 121, for a base year with four 1-year options. Id. at 79-93. The solicitation contemplated the award of up to six contracts to provide travel management services to support official travel activities of authorized Department of Defense travelers for six separate travel areas (one award per travel area) within the continental United States. Rodgers' protest concerns the competition for commercial travel office services for Travel Area 4, which included offices at 13 on-site locations throughout the country.
