             Decision




             Matter of: Computer Systems International, Inc.

             File:       B-276955; B-276955.2

             Date:       August 13, 1997

             Thomas C. Pool for the protester.
             John A. Evans, Esq., Naval Air Systems Command, Department of the Navy, for the
             agency.
             Christine F. Davis, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General
             Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
             DIGEST

             In a solicitation requesting firm, fixed-price proposals for operation and
             maintenance services of submarine training devices, the agency reasonably found
             the awardee's low-priced proposal realistic in accordance with the evaluation
             criteria, where the awardee's price, though less than the anticipated contract costs,
             compared favorably with another offeror's price and with the prior contract price
             for the same services.
             DECISION

             Computer Systems International, Inc. (CSI) protests the award of a contract to
             Applied Data Technology, Inc. (ADT) under request for proposals (RFP)
             No. N61339-96-R-0056, issued by the Department of the Navy, Naval Air Systems
             Command, for contractor operation and maintenance of simulators (COMS)
             services.

             We deny the protest.

             The RFP sought COMS services for fire fighter training devices, submarine damage
             control training devices, and other training devices to be used at four Navy
             submarine training sites: the Trident Training Facilities at Kings Bay, Georgia, and
             Bangor, Washington, and the Naval Submarine Training Center Pacific facilities at
             Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, and San Diego, California. The RFP requested firm, fixed
             prices for a 2-month base mobilization period, four 1-year options, and an 8-month
             option. The pricing schedules for the base and option periods included contract
             line item numbers (CLIN) corresponding to specific training devices. Prices for
             each CLIN were to include the labor, supply support (i.e., spare and repair parts),
             and consumables necessary to maintain and operate the specified devices during
             the designated contract period. No cost data supporting the CLIN pricing was
             required by the RFP.
