This redacted version has been approved for public release. Matter of: Global Engineering & Construction Joint Venture File: B-275999.4; B-275999.5 Date: October 6, 1997 Joan K Fiorino, Esq., and Donald E. Barnhill, Esq., East & Barnhill, for the protester. Laura J. Mann, Esq., and Alan M. Grayson, Esq., Alan M. Grayson and Associates, for Syska & Hennessy, Inc., and Robert J. Symon, Esq., and Douglas L. Patin, Esq., Spriggs & Hollingsworth, for John J. Kirlin, Inc., intervenors. Steven Feldman, Esq., and Craig R. Schmauder, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Tania L. Calhoun, Esq., and Christine S. Melody, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that contracting agency's evaluation and subsequent exclusion from the competitive range of protester's proposal were improper is denied where the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the solicitation's stated evaluation factors; protester's allegations that the agency misunderstood certain aspects of its proposal to its detriment are not supported by the record. 2. Supplemental protest that contracting agency improperly solicited for construction services but, in its evaluation, improperly converted the solicitation into one for design services is dismissed as untimely where the protester was provided sufficient information in its written debriefing document to include this specific allegation in its initial protest, but failed to raise the matter until nearly I month later. DECISION Global Engineering & Construction Joint Venture protests the exclusion of its proposal from the competitive range under request for proposals (RFP) No. DACA87-96-R-0025, issued by the Department of the Army, Corps of Engineers, for the maintenance, repair, and replacement of equipment and systems at government medical and other facilities nationwide. Global contends that the evaluation and subsequent exclusion of its proposal from the competitive range were improper.
