Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to Decision a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Enterprise Services LLC File: B-415517; B-415517.2 Date: January 18, 2018 Richard J. Conway, Esq., Merle M. DeLancey, Esq., Michael J. Slattery, Esq., loana Cristei, Esq., Philip E. Beshara, Esq., and Carolyn R. Cody-Jones, Esq., Blank Rome LLP, for the protester. Marcia G. Madsen, Esq., David F. Dowd, Esq., Cameron S. Hamrick, Esq., Luke Levasseur, Esq., and Roger V. Abbott, Esq., Mayer Brown LLP, for AT&T Corporation, the intervenor. Alice S. Chong, Esq., and William R. Buonaccorsi, Esq., National Security Agency, for the agency. Noah B. Bleicher, Esq., and Peter H. Tran, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protester is an interested party where, following a name change and corporate spin-off and merger, it stands as the successor in interest to the entity that submitted the proposal; the impact of the corporate transaction on the ability of the protester to perform as proposed is generally not a consideration in our Office's determination of interested party status. 2. Protest challenging multiple aspects of the agency's evaluation under the non-price factors is denied where the evaluation conclusions are reasonable and comprehensively documented, and where the protester's focus on the adjectival rating definitions does not withstand scrutiny. 3. Protest objecting to the agency's best-value tradeoff determination that resulted in an award to a higher-rated, higher-priced offeror is denied where the source selection decision is reasonable, well-documented, and consistent with the terms of the solicitation; the agency was not required to quantify the value of the awardee's technical superiority.
