Matter of: Total Solutions, Inc. File: B-408371.2; B-408371.3 Date: August 30, 2013 Jerome S. Gabig, Esq., Andrew D. Dill, Esq., and Richard J.R. Raleigh Jr., Esq., Wilmer & Lee, P.A., for the protester. Jon D. Levin, Esq., and Gary L. Rigney, Esq., Maynard Cooper & Gale, PC, for PeopleTec, Inc., the intervenor. Maj. John R. Longley, Capt. Michael E. Barnicle, and Scott N. Flesch, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Paula J. Haurilesko, Esq., and Guy R. Pietrovito, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that agency erroneously assessed a strength instead of a weakness in awardee's proposal for proposing personnel other than the contract program manager to lead the transition team is denied, where the solicitation did not require offerors to propose the contract program manager to perform that role. 2. Agency properly did not consider a firm's financial capability under a technical evaluation factor where the solicitation did not provide for such consideration. 3. Allegation that an agency did not comply with section 808 of the National Defense Authorization Act for Fiscal Year 2012 does not state a valid basis of protest where the requirements of the Act address management of the department and do not convey rights upon bidders or offerors. DECISION Total Solutions, Inc., of Madison, Alabama, protests the issuance of a task order to PeopleTec, Inc., of Huntsville, Alabama, by the Department of Defense, Missile Defense Agency (MDA), under request for task order proposals (RTOP) No. DS-02- 13 for executive administrative and action officer support. Total Solutions challenges the agency's evaluation of proposals, conduct of discussions, and selection decision.
