Request to Substitute Proposed Employee with More Qualified Individual Not a Bait and Switch; GAO B-414476, DKW Communications Inc.

Protest challenging the agency’s evaluation of the protester’s technical quotation is denied, where the protester’s proposal met the PWS requirements but did not warrant any particular strengths; and protest alleging that awardee engaged in a material misrepresentation regarding the availability of a proposed key employee is denied, where the awardee asked to substitute another individual for this position, but later confirmed that the original proposed employee was available to perform on the requirement.
