Kupono Government Services is claiming the evaluation process was flawed and that the winner of this set-aside contract is not actually a small business
The Energy Department’s re-award of a potential $377 million professional services contract has sparked a fresh protest from the disappointed incumbent.
In December 2022, Eagle Harbor won the contract to support the department’s National Training Center. But following one round of protests, Energy rescinded the award one month later to take a corrective action.
But Kupono Government Services, the incumbent, challenged that corrective action and said it did not go far enough. The Government Accountability Office agreed and told Energy in June 2023 that it needed to allow bidders to revise their entire proposals, not just the cost aspects as originally proposed.
On July, DOE again awarded the contract to Eagle Harbor.
Eleven days later, Kupono filed a fresh protest challenging the new award decision. Kupono is alleging that Energy’s evaluation of the proposals was flawed.
