          GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
          DIGEST

          1. Protest of technical and performance risk evaluation is denied, where record
          supports the agency's assessment of offerors' proposed joint tactical radio systems
          and otherwise indicates that proposals were evaluated fairly and in accordance with
          stated evaluation criteria.

          2. Cost realism analysis is unobjectionable, where record shows that the technical
          evaluators and Defense Contract Audit Agency evaluated proposed costs; this
          information was considered by the source selection authority in making his award
          decision; and the protester has not shown that additional costs were likely to be
          incurred during performance.
          DECISION

          ITT Industries, Inc. (ITT) protests the Department of the Army's award of a contract
          to General Dynamics Decision Systems (GDDS), under request for proposals (RFP)
          No. DAAB07-03-R-E808, for the development of joint tactical radio systems (JTRS).
          ITT challenges the evaluation of proposals and resulting source selection decision.
