Summary

The S.M. Stoller Corporation, of Broomfield, Colorado, protests the award of a contract to Navarro Nevada Environmental Services, LLC under request for proposals (RFP) No. DE-RP52-08NA28091, issued by the Department of Energy (DOE), National Nuclear Safety Administration (NNSA) for environmental remediation services in Nevada. Stoller contends that the agency improperly waived or relaxed a material solicitation requirement in its evaluation of Navarro's technical proposal, conducted an unreasonable cost realism evaluation, and failed to reasonably consider the risks in the awardee's proposed technical approach.

We sustain the protest.
