 B-294986.3; B-294986.4, Knoll, Inc.; Steelcase, Inc., March 18, 2005
Steelcase argues that it had addressed the 6-inch separation issue in a previous EN response and, therefore, it was not required to demonstrate compliance with this requirement in the subsequent ENs.
Steelcase now contends that it did not change the placement of the power wires and communications cables from the configuration shown in its earlier EN responses; rather, it maintains that it merely enlarged the baseplate to cover both.
Moreover, even if the information objectively established that Steelcase met the continuous lay-in requirement, the agency was not advised of this information during the evaluation of Steelcase's proposal and thus reasonably concluded that Steelcase's proposal was technically unacceptable based on Steelcase's proposal's apparent inability to provide continuous lay-in of cable in the base cavity.
