File: B-261673.2 Date: December 7, 1995 Brett A. Alcala, Esq., Birnbaum & Umeda, for the protester. Gregory H. Petkoff, Esq., and Mark E. Frazier, Esq., Department of the Air Force, for the agency. Robert Arsenoff, Esq., and Paul I. Lieberman, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging agency's determination to qualify awardee as an approved source is denied where record shows that the agency's determination was reasonably based. DECISION Astrosystems, Inc. protests the award of a contract to Support Systems Associates, Inc. (SSAI) under request for proposals (RFP) No. F41608-95-R-0194, issued by the San Antonio Air Logistics Center, Department of the Air Force, for services including the repair, testing, and calibration of automatic test equipment used on B-lB aircraft. The protester principally maintains that SSAI was improperly approved as a qualified source. We deny the protest. The RFP contemplated the award of a fixed-price contract to the lowest-priced offeror determined to be an approved source for the technical services to be performed under the contract, and listed Astrosystems as one of two previously approved sources. Offerors which had not been previously approved were invited to submit a source approval request (SAR) information package to enable the government to determine whether they could meet the government's needs. The SAR package was to contain the following: (1) Evidence of capability (e.g.: brochures, technical information, FAA certification, purchase orders or contract for similar items showing equal or greater degree of difficulty than equipment being considered). (2) Company experience and experience of the work force. 253127
