handle is hein.gao/gaompl0001 and id is 1 raw text is: GAO U.S. GOVERNMENT ACCOUNTABILITY OFFICE 441 G St. N.W. Comptroller General Washington, DC 20548 of the United States DOCUMENT FOR PUBLIC RELEASE The decision issued on the date below was subject to Decision a GAO Protective Order. This redacted version has been approved for public release Matter of: Information Assurance Specialists, Inc. d/b/a Sub U Systems File: B-420243; B-420243.2 Date: January 7, 2022 W. Jay DeVecchio, Esq., and James A. Tucker, Esq., Morrison & Foerster LLP, for the protester. Robert L. Miller, Esq., and Debra J. Talley, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Samantha S. Lee, Esq., and Peter H. Tran, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST Protest challenging the evaluation of its quotation as technically unacceptable is denied where the record shows that the agency reasonably found the protester's quotation failed to meet the solicitation's requirements. DECISION Information Assurance Specialists, Inc. d/b/a Sub U Systems (SUB-U), a small business of Turnersville, New Jersey, protests the award of a contract by the Department of the Army, Army Materiel Command, to NewSat North America, LLC, a small business of Indian Harbour Beach, Florida, under request for quotations (RFQ) No. W91 RUS21 R0122 for 27 executive communication kits.1 SUB-U alleges that the agency improperly found SUB-U's quotation technically unacceptable. We deny the protest. 1 The solicitation was issued as a request for proposals, but refers to itself as both an RFQ and a request for proposals. During the protest proceedings, the parties, however, refer to the solicitation almost exclusively as an RFQ and the firms that competed here as vendors that submitted quotations. For the sake of consistency with the record, we do so as well.
