Matter of: Environmental Systems Research Institute, Inc. File: B-408847.2 Date: January 17, 2014 Christopher C. Bouquet, Esq., and Wayne A. Keup, Esq., for the protester. Daniel F. Edwards, Esq., Daniel P. Broderick, Esq., Christian F. Henel, Esq., and Lawrence M. Prosen, Esq., Thompson Hine LLP, for URS Group, Inc., an intervenor. Sherry Kinland Kaswell, Esq., and Sarah Zaffina, Esq., Department of the Interior, for the agency. Paul E. Jordan, Esq., and David A. Ashen, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest against rejection of proposal as unacceptable is denied where solicitation required offerors to provide fixed prices for all proposed software, and agency reasonably concluded that protester's submission of partial pricing information and reliance on expiring enterprise license agreement did not meet requirement for submission of fixed prices.

Esri challenges the evaluation of its technical proposal and price. We deny the protest. BACKGROUND The RFP contemplated issuance of a fixed-price, indefinite-delivery/indefinite- quantity (IDIQ) contract for web-based geospatial services related to the GPM, for a base year with four 1-year options, with total task orders not to exceed $15 million
