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: McLane Advanced Technologies, LLC File: B-420713; B-420713.2 Date: August 1, 2022 Jayna M. Rust, Esq., Scott F. Lane, Esq., and Katherine S. Nucci, Esq., Thompson Coburn LLP, for the protester. Robert K. Tompkins, Esq., Hillary J. Freund, Esq., Kelsey M. Hayes, Esq., and Sean R. Belanger, Esq., Holland & Knight LLP, for STS Solutions and Training, LLC, the intervenor. Wade L. Brown, Esq., and Pamela Kennerly Ignatius, Esq., Department of the Army, for the agency. Mary G. Curcio, Esq., and John Sorrenti, Esq., Office of the General Counsel, GAO, participated in the preparation of the decision. DIGEST 1. Protest that misrepresentations in awardee's quotation should result in rejection of the quotation is denied where alleged misrepresentations were not relied upon by the agency in the evaluation, and therefore were not material to the selection decision. 2. Protest that source selection decision was improperly based on adjectival ratings, rather than the merits of competing quotations, is denied where the record demonstrates that in conducting the price/technical tradeoff the source selection official reviewed the evaluation record and considered the merits of all quotations. DECISION McLane Advanced Technologies, LLC (MAT), of Vienna, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order to SS Solutions and Training, of San Antonio, Texas, pursuant to request for quotations (RFQ) No. 1532024, issued by the Department of the Army, Army Materiel Command, for post-production software support for the agency's property book unit supply enhanced (PBUSE) requirement. McLane asserts that SST made material misrepresentations in its quotation that render SST ineligible for award of the task order. McLane also protests that the agency performed an unreasonable best-value tradeoff analysis. We deny the protest.
