</titleInfo>
<abstract>1.  Protest against award based on higher technically rated,
lower-priced proposal alleging that proposed price is unreasonably low 
is denied where the agency reasonably determined that the proposed 
price was reasonable on the basis that the awardee, which was 
experienced and knowledgeable with respect to the work to be 
performed, proposed a price that was substantially comparable to the 
government estimate and to another offeror&apos;s price.&lt;p/&gt;2.  Protester&apos;s contention that agency misevaluated its proposal with 
respect to past performance is denied where the record shows that the 
evaluation was reasonable and in accordance with the stated evaluation 
factors.</abstract>
