Summary

Triple Canopy, Inc. of Herndon, Virginia, protests the award of a task order by the Department of the Army, Joint Contracting Command -- Iraq/Afghanistan, to Sabre International Security of Baghdad, Iraq, for security services at forward operating base (FOB) Q-West in Iraq. The task order was issued pursuant to a multiple award indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity (ID/IQ) contract known as the Theater-Wide Internal Security Services (TWISS) contract. Triple Canopy asserts that Sabre is ineligible for the task order award because it does not hold a U.S. facilities security clearance, and that the agency erred in evaluating Sabre's and Triple Canopy's past performance.

We dismiss the protest in part and deny it in part.
