handle is hein.gao/gaocrptaefk0001 and id is 1 raw text is: Comptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision Matter of: Trandes Corporation File: B-271662 Date: August 2, 1996 Daniel A. Perkowski, Esq., for the protester. David W. Burgett, Esq., Hogan & Hartson, for ManTech Advanced Systems International, Inc., the intervenor. Elizabeth Rivera Bagwell, Esq., and Otto A. Thompson, Jr., Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Henry J. Gorczycki, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST A succession of interest in, or a transfer of, a proposal has not occurred where an initial proposal is prepared and submitted by one unincorporated operating unit of the offeror corporation and subsequent revised proposals are prepared and submitted by another unincorporated operating unit of the same corporation, because the legal offering entity under the proposal, i.e., the offeror corporation, has not changed. DECISION Trandes Corporation protests an award to ManTech Field Engineering Company (MFE Co.), a division of ManTech Advanced Systems International, Inc. (MASI) under request for proposals (RFP) No. N00604-93-R-0056, issued by the Department of the Navy, Fleet and Industrial Supply Center, Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, for engineering, installation and support services for electronic and communication equipment and systems on board naval vessels and on shore stations worldwide. We deny the protest. The Navy issued the RFP on June 18, 1993, contemplating award of an indefinite- delivery/indefinite-quantity, time-and-materials contract on a best value basis for a base period with four 1-year options. The Navy received initial proposals from three offerors, including Trandes and MASI. On April 1, 1994, after conducting discussions, and requesting and receiving best and final offers (BAFO), the Navy awarded the contract to MASI. Trandes protested this award to our Office. We sustained the protest because the agency's cost evaluation was unreasonable. Trandes Corp., B-256975.3, Oct. 25, 1994, 94-2 CPD 221. 53982
