GAO: B-291152; B-291152.2, ViaSat, Inc., November 26, 2002 (4529 words)
ViaSat objects to numerous aspects of the agency's evaluation of the proposals, most particularly with respect to the performance risk factor, and contends that the resulting award determination is arbitrary and unreasonable.
ViaSat's underlying protest premise is that it submitted a lower cost proposal which received a technical rating that was equal to the Titan proposal's technical rating, therefore, the respective performance risk evaluations were determinative.
ViaSat responded by agreeing that there had been delays, with respect to which it had negotiated an equitable adjustment, and blamed the problems on the complexity of the product and on ViaSat's reliance on a government furnished technical data package which it claimed was inconsistent, incomplete and deficient.
