DIGEST Protest challenging agency's evaluation of proposals and source selection is denied where record shows that the agency's evaluation and selection decision were reasonable and consistent with the terms of the solicitation and applicable statutes and regulations.

(QI), of Lorton, Virginia, protests the issuance of a task order to Peraton Technology Services, Inc., of Chantilly, Virginia, under request for proposals (RFP) No. RS3-22-0035, issued by the Department of the Army for services in connection with the agency's Maturation of Ground Aided Target Acquisition program, which is described in the solicitation as aided target acquisition technology for ground combat vehicles. QI argues that the agency misevaluated proposals and made an unreasonable source selection decision. We deny the protest.
