DIGEST 1. In a procurement for the award of a fixed-price task order, an agency complied with the solicitation requirement to perform a price realism evaluation where the agency recognized that the awardee's lower price reflected lower staffing and concluded that the awardee could satisfactorily perform all the task order requirements with its proposed staffing. 2. Protest that awardee failed to provide a fixed price for surge requirements is denied where the solicitation only identified a potential for surge and did not require offerors to provide prices for this surge. DECISION H P Enterprise Services, LLC (HP), of Herndon, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order to Pragmatics, Inc., of Reston, Virginia, under task order request for proposals (RFP) No. E200450, issued by the Department of Defense, Defense information Systems Agency (DISA), for information assurance support for the Air Force Network Integration Center.
