Agency reasonably rated proposal as marginal/high risk for technical factor under solicitation requesting proposals for training systems devices and curricula, where the proposal failed to provide sufficient details of its written instructional system development processes and failed to provide sufficient details in its sample task response. 2. Discussions were not misleading, even though, on the basis of an incorrect assumption, protester misinterpreted a particular discussion question, where a reasonably diligent offeror would have correctly understood, or requested clarification of, the agency discussion question. 3. Agency reasonably made one of the awards under solicitation contemplating multiple awards of indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contracts to an offeror whose marginal proposal contained one significant weakness, but not to an offeror whose marginal proposal contained two significant weaknesses under the same technical subfactor (with other aspects of the evaluation being relatively equal), where the agency reasonably determined this was a discriminator between the technical merits of the two proposals that justified award to one and not the other. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-292755/html/GAOREPORTS-B-292755.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-292755/pdf/GAOREPORTS-B-292755.pdf GAO/B-292755 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-B-292755 Comptroller General Decision GAO/B-292755; American Systems Corporation, B-292755; B-292755.2, December 3, 2003;
