File: B-410632 Date: December 15, 2014 Keith Lovendale, RADeCO, Inc., the protester. James J. McCullough, Esq., and Samuel W. Jack, Esq., Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson LLP, for Spectral Labs, Inc., the intervenor. Valerie G.S. Hirsch, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Paul N. Wengert, Esq., and Tania Calhoun, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest that the agency's evaluation of the awardee's proposal was unreasonable is denied where the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the solicitation. DECISION RADeCO, Inc., of Plainfield, Connecticut, a small business, protests the award of a contract to Spectral Labs, Inc., of San Diego, California, by the Department of the Navy, Naval Sea Systems Command, under request for proposals (RFP) No. N65540-14-R-5014, to upgrade and refurbish air particle sampling equipment. RADeCO argues that the Navy should have rejected Spectral's proposal as technically unacceptable.' Protest at 1. We deny the protest. 1 In preparing this decision, we reviewed proprietary and source selection information that the Navy submitted only to our Office, including the proposal submitted by Spectral, and the evaluation of it by the Navy. Since RADeCO was not represented by counsel who could apply for admission under our protective order process, our discussion of those parts of the protest record is necessarily general. RADeCO submitted comments based on a redacted copy of Spectral's proposal.
