         DIGEST

         Protest challenging agency's cost realism analysis is sustained where the analysis
         was premised on errors in the agency's interpretation of substantiating data
         submitted in connection with the protester's cost proposal.
         DECISION

         General Dynamics Advanced Information Systems, Inc. (GDAIS), of Fairfax,
         Virginia, protests the award of a contract to Lockheed Martin Mission Systems and
         Training, of Washington, District of Columbia, by the Department of the Navy, Naval
         Sea Systems Command, under request for proposals (RFP) No. N00024-14-R-
         5352, for the Navy's surface electronic warfare improvement program (SEWIP)
         block 1 B3 full rate production requirement. GDAIS alleges that the agency
         conducted an unreasonable cost realism analysis by erroneously assuming that
         GDAIS proposed uncompensated overtime to meet the RFP's level of effort
         requirements, and as a result made an incorrect and unreasonable upward
         adjustment to GDAIS's cost proposal.


We sustain the protest.
