Agency Unreasonably Assigned Strength to Awardee’s Proposal for Incumbent Retention, When Proposal Made No Such Promise; COFC No. 18-86C, DZSP 21 LLC v. United States and Fluor Federal Solutions LLC

Protest challenging the agency’s evaluation of proposals is sustained, where the agency unreasonably awarded a strength to the awardee’s proposal for its ability to retain incumbent staff, when the proposal instead acknowledged potential difficulty in retaining existing employees and offered an alternative plan to staffing.
