This version has been redacted or approved by the parties involved for public release.. Matter of: Lockheed Support Systems, Inc. File: B-265663.2 Date: February 7, 1996 Stan Hinton, Esq., Baker & Botts, for the protester. J. Michael Cooper, Esq., Bryan Cave, for McDonnell Douglas Aerospace, an interested party. Rosalind Woolbright, Esq., Anthony Sweeney, Esq., and J. Cole Cartledge, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Guy R. Pietrovito, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST In a negotiated best value procurement for aircraft maintenance services, in which technical merit was more important than price, the source selection official reasonably considered the technical merit and value underlying the evaluation ratings of the protester's and awardee's proposals, as well as the cost savings in various streamlining proposals of the protester, and determined that the protester's higher-rated, higher-priced offer was not worth the substantial price premium associated with its proposal. DECISION Lockheed Support Systems, Inc. protests the award of a contract to McDonnell Douglas Aerospace (MDA) under request for proposals (RFP) No. N68520-95-R-0001, issued by the Department of the Navy for maintenance services for various fighter and strike aircraft in the agency's Naval Tactical Air Warfare program.' Lockheed challenges the agency's evaluation of technical proposals and cost/technical tradeoff analysis. We deny the protest. 'This program is part of the Navy's training provided to Navy fighter (aircraft that attack other aircraft or missiles) and strike (aircraft that attack ground targets) pilots. 104228
