handle is hein.gao/gaocrptaely0001 and id is 1 raw text is: Comptroller General of the United States Washington, D.C. 20548 Decision DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE A protected decision was issued on the date below and was subject to a GAO Protective Order. This version has been redacted or approved by the parties involved for public release. Matter of: Pacific Architects and Engineers, Inc. File: B-274405.2; B-274405.3 Date: December 18, 1996 Howell Roger Riggs, Esq., for the protester. Stuart Young, Esq., and Cheralyn S. Cameron, Esq. for DynCorp, an intervenor. Thomas J. Duffy, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Katherine I. Riback, Esq., Glenn G. Wolcott, Esq., and Paul Lieberman, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Although agency did not give protester an opportunity to comment on each individual survey response regarding past performance, discussions were adequate where agency identified multiple categories in which protester's past performance was deficient and protester has not identified any other past performance areas under which its proposal was downgraded. 2. Agency's cost realism analysis was adequate where the agency reasonably considered the likely cost of awardee's performance, including a determination that the awardee's proposed manning levels were adequate to perform the solicitation tasking requirements. DECISION Pacific Architects and Engineers, Inc. (PAE) protests the Department of the Army's award of a contract to DynCorp under request for proposals (RFP) No. DAHC92-95- R-0132. PAE, the incumbent contractor, argues that the agency failed to conduct adequate discussions, improperly evaluated its proposal, and failed to perform an adequate cost realism analysis.' We deny the protest. 1The protester initially raised other arguments that were the subject of a partial dismissal earlier in this proceeding. 500124
