DIGEST Protest challenging the agency's price realism and technical risk evaluation is dismissed as untimely where the protester waited until more than a month after the close of its debriefing to receive confirming information to support its allegations which were knowable or should have been knowable at the time the protester received its debriefing. DECISION CDO Technologies, Inc., a small business, of Dayton, Ohio, protests the award of a task order to Atlantic CommTech Corporation (ACT), a small business, of Norfolk, Virginia, under Fair Opportunity Proposal Request (FOPR) No. FA4890-18-R-001 1, which was issued by the Department of the Air Force, for communications engineering and installation (E&I) program support for the U.S. Air Force Central Command (USAFCENT). CDO alleges that the agency conducted an unreasonable price realism evaluation of ACT's proposal and failed to adequately assess the performance risk associated with ACT's unrealistic proposed price. We dismiss the protest because it is untimely where it was filed more than 10 days after CDO knew or reasonably should have known the bases for its protest.
