Young, Esq., Morrison & Foerster LLP, for the protester. Tod D. Stephens, Esq., Armstrong Teasdale LLP, for UNCOMN, LLC, the intervenor. Patricia S. Wiegman-Lenz, Esq., and Christopher M.

Curcio, Esq., and Laura Eyester, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that agency unreasonably evaluated protester's price as unrealistic is denied where the majority of the protester's proposed labor rates were substantially below the prices proposed by other offerors, the government estimate, and the rates under the incumbent contract. 2. Protester is not an interested party to challenge the evaluation of its technical proposal, or the awardee's past performance, where agency reasonably rejected protester for unrealistic pricing and protester does not allege that awardee should be evaluated as unacceptable under the non-price factors. DECISION ACTA, LLC, of Torrance, California, protests the award of a contract to UNCOMN, LLC, of Scott Air Force Base, Illinois, under request for proposals (RFP) No. HTC71119RD007, issued by the Department of the Air Force for enterprise architecture, enterprise data management, and information technology engineering services. ACTA asserts that the agency unreasonably concluded that ACTA submitted an unrealistic price proposal. ACTA also challenges the agency's evaluation of ACTA's technical proposal and UNCOMN's past performance. We deny the protest.
