[Protest of GSA Contract Award for Janitorial Services]

A firm protested a General Services Administration (GSA) contract award for janitorial services, contending that GSA improperly evaluated its proposal, and that the price/technical tradeoff was improper. GAO held that GSA: (1) evaluated the protester's bid in accordance with the solicitation's evaluation criteria; and (2) performed a proper price/technical tradeoff in selecting the higher-priced, technically superior bid. Accordingly, the protest was denied.
