          DIGEST

          Protest challenging the agency's decision not to set aside an indefinite-delivery,
          indefinite-quantity architect/engineer services contract for service-disabled veteran-
          owned small business (SDVOSB) concerns is sustained where the record shows
          that the agency had a reasonable expectation of receiving proposals from two or
          more SDVOSB concerns capable of performing the required services.
          DECISION

          Spur Design, LLC (Spur) of Oklahoma City, Oklahoma, protests the Department of
          Veterans Affairs' (VA) decision not to set aside for service-disabled veteran-owned
          small business (SDVOSB) or veteran-owned small business (VOSB) concerns
          solicitation number VA-255-15-R-0752 for architect/engineer (A/E) services. Spur,
          an SDVOSB, argues that the VA decision not to set the solicitation aside for
          SDVOSB concerns was in contravention of the VA Acquisition Regulation (VAAR)
          §§ 819.7004 and 819.7005.

          We sustain the protest.

          BACKGROUND

          The solicitation was issued on September 4, 2015, as a small business set-aside
          seeking a variety of professional A/E services for nine Veterans Integrated Service
