handle is hein.gao/gaocrptaldw0001 and id is 1 raw text is: -e GeAtOa __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: North American Aerodynamics, Inc. File: B-285651 Date: September 15, 2000 James J. McCullough, Esq., and Catherine E. Pollack, Esq., Fried, Frank, Harris, Shriver & Jacobson, for the protester. Michael A. Hordell, Esq., and Laura L. Hoffman, Esq., Gadsby & Hannah, for Triangle Parachute LLC, an intervenor. Brian Howell, Esq., Department of the Navy, for the agency. Guy R. Pietrovito, Esq., and James A. Spangenberg, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Agency's evaluation of protester's past performance was reasonably based upon comments received from one of protester's references and the agency's assessment of protester's subcontract performance under the prior contract for the required items, where the agency, despite repeated attempts, could contact only one of protester's three references listed in the protester's proposal. DECISION North American Aerodynamics, Inc. protests the award of a contract to Triangle Parachute LLC under request for proposals (RFP) No. N00174-00-R-0018, issued by the Department of the Navy, for the manufacture of subassembly panels, parachutes, and deployment bags in support of the Navy's Distributed Explosive Technology (DET) system.! North American challenges the agency's evaluation of its and Triangle's proposals, and contends that Triangle misrepresented its commitment to meet the contract delivery schedule. We deny the protest. 'The DET is a mine clearance system, using a rocket-launched explosive array that is deployed from the deck of a landing craft to clear mines in a launch zone.
