Highlights

a firm objected to the agency's determination that its proposal was technically unacceptable, alleging that the determination was due to bias or political pressures. The protest was denied since the allegations were unsupported, and no objection was raised to the specific findings of the agency evaluators. Once the offer was found to be outside the competitive range, the agency was not obligated to hold any further discussions with the offerer despite the fact that the only two remaining offerers were both funded by the agency involved and despite the fact that the protester performed studies for the agency in the past.
