         DIGEST

         1. Protester's assertion that agency's evaluation of its technical proposal was
         flawed is denied where the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and
         consistent with the solicitation.

         2. Protest challenging the agency's best value tradeoff determination because it did
         not include any consideration of the protester's proposal is denied where the record
         demonstrates that the agency reasonably determined the protester's proposal was
         ineligible for award.
         DECISION

         Enhanced Veterans Solutions, Inc. (eVETS), of Springfield, Virginia, protests the
         award of a contract to Central Research, Inc. (CRI), of Lowell, Arkansas, under
         request for proposals (RFP) No. HSSCCG-14-R-00027, issued by the Department
         of Homeland Security, United States Citizen and Immigration Services (USCIS), for
         administrative records management services for two of USCIS's service centers.
         The protester challenges various aspects of the agency's evaluation of proposals
         and its source selection decision.


We deny the protest in part and dismiss the remainder of the protest.
