Protest that the agency's evaluation of proposals was unreasonable and inconsistent with the stated evaluation criteria is denied where the record shows that the agency's evaluation was reasonable, and that the solicitation's evaluation criteria were fairly and consistently applied in the agency's assessment of both the protester's and the awardee's proposals.<p/> 2. Source selection authority (SSA) performed a reasonable price/technical tradeoff in determining that the awardee's proposal represented the best value, where the SSA's judgment, based upon the results of a reasonable, documented technical evaluation, demonstrates the SSA's understanding of the evaluated strengths and weaknesses of the respective proposals, and shows a reasonable weighing of the offerors' respective technical and price advantages consistent with the solicitation's evaluation criteria. https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-297413/html/GAOREPORTS-B-297413.htm https://www.govinfo.gov/content/pkg/GAOREPORTS-B-297413/pdf/GAOREPORTS-B-297413.pdf GAO/B-297413 https://www.govinfo.gov/app/details/GAOREPORTS-B-297413 Comptroller General Decision GAO/B-297413; B-297413; B-297413.2; B-297413.3, Puglia Engineering of California, Inc., January 20, 2006;
