handle is hein.gao/gaocrptagel0001 and id is 1 raw text is: __Comptroller General of the United States -----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------. United States General Accounting Office DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE Washington, DC 20548 The decision issued on the date below was subject to a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release. Decision Matter of: Manufacturing Engineering Systems, Inc File: B-278074; B-278074.2 Date: December 23, 1997 Victor Zupa, Esq., Neville Shaver Hubbard & McLean, for the protester. Lori S. Chofnas, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. John L. Formica, Esq., and James Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest that the contracting agency unreasonably evaluated the protester's and awardee's competing proposals for instructional services under the management evaluation factor with regard to their respective approaches to the scheduling of daily training is denied, where the record shows that the agency reasonably determined that the protester's scheduling approach was unacceptable and that the awardee's well-documented scheduling approach was acceptable; the protester's mere disagreement does not render the agency's evaluation unreasonable. DECISION Manufacturing Engineering Systems, Inc. (iVIES), a small, disadvantaged business concern (SDB), protests the award of a contract to Lockheed Martin Services, Inc., under request for proposals (RFP) No. N00140-97-R-1850, issued by the Department of the Navy, for instructional services. MES contends that the agency's evaluation of its and Lockheed's proposals, as well as the selection of Lockheed's proposal for award, were unreasonable. We deny the protest. The RFP provided for the award of an indefinite delivery, indefinite quantity contract, with fixed-price and cost-reimbursement contract line items, for a base with 4 option years. The successful contractor under the RFP will be required to schedule and provide flight simulator, classroom, and interactive courseware (ICW)
