Matter of:   Arrowpoint Corporation

File:        B-417375.2; B-417375.3

Date:        October 25, 2019

Richard B. O'Keeffe, Jr., Esq., and Kendra P. Norwood, Esq., Wiley Rein LLP, for the
protester.
Devon E. Hewitt, Esq., Michael E. Stamp, Esq., and Scott M. Dinner, Esq., Protorae
Law, PLLC, for Tiber Creek Consulting, Inc., the intervenor.
Captain Richard W. Hagner, Department of the Army, for the agency.
Todd C. Culliton, Esq., and Tania Calhoun, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO,
participated in the preparation of the decision.
DIGEST

1. Protest that the agency unreasonably evaluated technical and past performance
proposals is denied where the record shows the evaluations were consistent with the
solicitation's terms, proposed technical approaches, and past performance information.

2. Protest that the agency failed to review awardee's proposal for unbalanced pricing is
denied where the protester did not identify aspects of the awardee's pricing which were
materially overstated.

3. Protest that the agency unreasonably made its source selection decision is denied
where the record shows that the source selection authority compared the qualitative
differences between the proposals and did not convert the basis for award from
best-value tradeoff to lowest-priced, technically acceptable.
DECISION

Arrowpoint Corporation, of McLean, Virginia, protests the award of a contract to Tiber
Creek Consulting, Inc., of Fairfax, Virginia, under request for proposals (RFP)
No. W81 K04-18-R-0005, issued by the Department of the Army for medical operational
data systems (MODS) support services. Arrowpoint alleges that the agency
unreasonably evaluated proposals and improperly made its source selection decision.


We deny the protest.
