Protest challenging agency's evaluation of awardee's past experience, for a contract awarded to a joint venture, is denied where the agency reasonably credited the work performed to a member of the joint venture. 2. Protest challenging agency's evaluation of awardee's past experience is sustained where the agency waived a material requirement without providing notice to all vendors, and such waiver resulted in competitive prejudice to the protester. 3. Protest challenging agency's technical evaluation of solicitation responses is denied where the agency evaluated vendors reasonably and in accordance with the evaluation scheme.
