           Matter of:  Halfaker and Associates, LLC

           File:       B-407919; B-407919.2

           Date:       April 10, 2013

           Thomas P. Humphrey, Esq., Peter J. Eyre, Esq., Margaret A. Nielsen, Esq., and
           Grant J. Book, Esq., Crowell & Moring LLP, for the protester.
           Robert J. McMullen, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency.
           Eric M. Ransom, Esq., and Edward Goldstein, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
           GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
           DIGEST

           1. Protest that agency failed to consider risks in awardee's performance approach
           is denied where the agency evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the
           terms of the solicitation.

           2. Protest challenging evaluation of awardee's past performance as undocumented
           and unreasonable is denied where the source selection decision documents the
           contracting officer's reasonable independent analysis of awardee's past
           performance.

           3. Protest challenging agency's selection of the lower-rated, lower-priced proposal
           for award is denied, where the record shows that the agency evaluation was
           consistent with the solicitation's best value award criteria.
           DECISION

           Halfaker and Associates, LLC, of Arlington, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task
           order to Native Hawaiian Veterans, LLC (NHV), of Honolulu, Hawaii, by the
           Department of the Navy, Naval Supply Systems Command Fleet Logistics Center
           Norfolk, under task order request for proposals (TORP) No. N00024-12-R-3343, for
           watchstander support services at various Navy Regional Operation Centers (ROC)
           around the world.


We deny the protest.
