DIGEST 1. Protest of agency's evaluation of credentials of key management and technical personnel is denied where evaluation was consistent with solicitation's stated evaluation scheme and statement of work, discussion questions addressed this issue, and evaluation is supported by the record. 2. Contention that agency unreasonably evaluated proposals and improperly concluded that the awardee's higher-rated, higher-cost proposal offered the best value to the government is denied, where the record shows that evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the stated evaluation scheme; the request for proposals stated that technic al/management and past performance evaluation areas were more important than price; and source selection official reasonably determined that the greater technical merit of the awardee's proposal was worth the additional cost. DECISION Advanced Data Concepts, Inc. (ADC) protests the award of a contract to ATM Service Company (ATM) by the Department of Energy (DOE) pursuant to request for proposals (RFP) No. DE-RP04-98AL78902. Basically, ADC alleges that the evaluation of proposals and award decision were fatally flawed. We deny the protest.
