Protest that the agency gave preferential treatment to the awardee in its evaluation of proposals is denied where the record shows that the evaluation was reasonable and consistent with the request for proposals's evaluation scheme, and the agency fairly evaluated both the protester's and the awardee's proposals. <p/>2. Award of a contract to the offeror of the higher technically rated, higher-priced proposal was proper where the agency reasonably determined that the awardee's slightly higher-priced proposal was worth the additional cost. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-272248/html/GAOREPORTS-B-272248.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-272248/pdf/GAOREPORTS-B-272248.pdf GAO/B-272248 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-B-272248 Comptroller General Decision GAO/B-272248; PW Construction, Inc.;
