DIGEST
1. Protest challenging evaluation of the protester's key personnel is denied where the
record shows that the agency's evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the
terms of the solicitation.
2. Protester is not an interested party to challenge the evaluation of quotations and
resulting award decision where the protester fails to demonstrate that it would have a
substantial chance of receiving an award if our Office were to sustain its protest.
DECISION
Missing Link Communications, LLC, doing business as Missing Link Security (MLS), a
service-disabled veteran-owned small business of Manassas, Virginia, protests the
award of a contract to MindPoint Group, LLC, of Alexandria, Virginia. MLS challenges
the award to MindPoint under request for quotations (RFQ) No. 2031 JW21 Q00089,
issued by the Department of the Treasury, Office of the Comptroller of the Currency
(OCC) for cyber defense, engineering, and risk management support services. The
protester challenges the agency's evaluation of quotations, and the resulting award
decision.

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