DIGEST

Protest challenging the agency's evaluation of protester's proposal and its exclusion
from the competitive range is denied where the record shows that the evaluation was
reasonable and consistent with the solicitation's evaluation criteria, and where the
agency reasonably determined that the protester's proposal was unacceptable.
DECISION

DynaLantic Corporation, of Ozark, Alabama, protests the exclusion of its proposal from
the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP) No. W900KK-1 8-R-0004,
issued by the Department of the Army, Army Contracting Command-Orlando, for the
production, installation, and support of two utility helicopter (UH)-60A flight training
