Protest challenging the rejection of the protester's proposal as technically unacceptable

DECISION

UniEnergy Co. Ltd., of Hairatan, Afghanistan, protests the decision by the Department
of the Army to reject the proposal it submitted in response to request for proposals
(RFP) No. W91 B4N-1 7-R-0005, which was issued by the Department of the Army for
fuel delivery for the Republic of Afghanistan. The protester argues that the agency
unreasonably concluded that the licenses provided in its proposal did not meet the
solicitation requirements.

We deny the protest.
