          Matter of. Forest City Military Communities, LLC

          File:        B-299577

          Date:        June 29, 2007

          Robert H. Koehler, Esq., and Jennifer S. Zucker, Esq., Patton Boggs LLP, for the
          protester.
          E. Sanderson Hoe, Esq., and Jennifer M. Morrison, Esq., McKenna Long & Aldridge
          LLP, for GMH/Centex Military Communities, an intervenor.
          Matthew R. Keiser, Esq., U.S. Army Corps of Engineers, for the agency.
          Jonathan L. Kang, Esq., and Ralph 0. White, Esq., Office of the General Counsel,
          GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision.
          DIGEST

          1. Protest challenging the agency's use of an arbitrary plug number in evaluating
          the awardee's proposed cost is denied where the protester's own calculation of the
          awardee's cost demonstrates that there was no likelihood of prejudice.

          2. Protester's supplemental challenges to the agency's evaluation of its proposal are
          dismissed as untimely where the protester could have, but did not, raise the
          arguments in its initial protest based on information made available to the protester
          during its debriefing.
          DECISION

          Forest City Military Communities, LLC protests the award of a contract to
          GMH/Centex Military Communities (GMH) under request for qualifications (RFQ)
          No. W912DR-06-R-0006, issued by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers for housing and
          community development at the U.S. Military Academy (USMA) in West Point, NY.
          The protester contends that the agency's evaluation of offerors' proposals was
          unreasonable.


We dismiss the protest as untimely in part, and deny the protest in part.
