Identification of Risk Does Not Require Agency to Make Upward Adjustment to Costs; GAO B-414410, Epsilon Systems Solutions Inc.

Protest challenging the agency’s technical evaluation is denied, where the protester’s challenges generally amount to disagreement with the agency’s judgment, and protest alleging that the agency failed to adjust the awardee’s cost for risk assigned to its proposal is denied, where the presence of some risk in a proposal does not necessarily require an agency to upwardly adjust the proposal costs.
