High-Priced Proposal Reasonably Excluded from Competitive Range of Low Price Offerors; GAO B-414148, TransAtlantic Lines LLC

Protest challenging the exclusion of the protester’s proposal from the competitive range is denied, where the agency found the protester had failed to provide information required by the solicitation, rendering it technically unacceptable, and where the agency reasonably concluded the protester’s proposal had no realistic chance for award, because it was among the highest-priced offers received.
