Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE Decision The decision issued on the date below was subject to a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Vane Line Bunkering, Inc. File: B-417859; B-417859.2 Date: November 22, 2019 Jayna Marie Rust, Esq., Katherine S. Nucci, Esq., Scott F. Lane, Esq., and Timothy Sullivan, Esq., Thompson Coburn LLP, for the protester. Bryant E. Gardner, Esq., and Allison Skopec, Esq., Winston & Strawn LLP, for Harley Marine Services, Inc., the intervenor. Colonel Patricia S. Wiegman-Lenz, Lieutenant Colonel John C. Degnan, and Lawrence M. Anderson, Esq., Department of the Air Force, for the agency. Joshua R. Gillerman, Esq., and Peter H. Tran, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest challenging the agency's evaluation of the awardee's proposal under the technical factor is sustained in part where the record does not show that the agency considered significant countervailing evidence in the awardee's proposal that cast doubt on the awardee's assertions of compliance with the solicitation's vessel capacity requirements. 2. Protest that agency improperly evaluated the awardee's past performance is sustained where the record does not confirm that the awardee was the contractor on submitted past performance references and does not support the reasonableness of crediting the awardee with the past performance of its subsidiaries. 3. Protest that the agency improperly found the awardee responsible is denied where the record shows that the agency reasonably considered the available information concerning the awardee's financial status. DECISION Vane Line Bunkering, Inc., of Baltimore, Maryland, protests the award of a contract to Harley Marine Services, Inc., of Seattle, Washington, under request for proposals (RFP) No. HTC711-19-R-W003, issued by United States Transportation Command for fuel transportation services. Vane challenges the agency's evaluation of proposals and source selection decision.
