Col. Nicholas P. Retson and Maj. Robert W. Clark, Department of the Army, for the agency. Linda C. Glass, Esq., and Paul I. Lieberman, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest that agency did not provide protester a fair opportunity to compete under simplified acquisition for automated patient appointment reminder system is denied where, although the agency considered an inappropriate price comparison, the record shows that the agency evaluated all information received from the vendors and, with full understanding of the actual pricing, reasonably determined that the selected system represented the best value to the government. DECISION AudioCARE Systems protests the issuance of delivery order No. DADA09-99-F- 0638 by the Department of the Army to Advanced Scientific Supply for a Solvetech System automated patient appointment reminder system for the Great Plains Regional Medical Command under simplified acquisition procedures. AudioCARE contends that agency did not provide it a fair opportunity to compete for the order. We deny the protest. In an effort to install and standardize its automated patient appointment reminder system at all of its hospitals, the Great Plains Regional Medical Command sought quotes for and reviewed the systems supplied by Solvetech and AudioCARE because at least one of each system was installed at a hospital in the region. Contracting Officer's Statement at 1. The Solvetech system is offered by Advanced Scientific under a Defense Personnel Support Center
