           DIGEST

           Protest challenging the agency's elimination of protester's proposal from the
           competitive range is denied, where the proposal was reasonably evaluated as
           technically unacceptable.
           DECISION

           CEdge Software Consultants, LLC, of St. Louis, Missouri, protests the elimination of
           its proposal from the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP)
           No. HTC711-13-R-D003, issued by the Department of Defense (DOD), U.S.
           Transportation Command (USTRANSCOM), for enterprise architecture and
           information technology engineering services. CEdge contends that the agency's
           technical evaluation was unreasonable and that the agency engaged in misleading
           discussions.

           We deny the protest.
