   WILLIAMS, Board Judge.
 
        On  March  15,  1993,  protester  Raytech  Engineering, Inc.
   (Raytech) filed a  motion for award of protest  costs pursuant to
   Board Rule 35(a)(1).  The Board granted the underlying protest on
   all  issues,  finding that  the  Navy  had violated  statute  and
   regulation  in awarding  to a  company  which did  not provide  a
   commercial  off-the-shelf product by  the time frame  required in
   the  solicitation  and  that the  Navy  had  engaged  in improper
   discussions with Raytech.
 
        In  its  motion  for  costs,  Raytech  claims  a   total  of
   $67,474.53 representing legal fees of protester's outside counsel
   in the  amount of $57,016.25  and disbursements in the  amount of
   $10,458.28.   The  Navy does  not object  to the award  of costs.
   Letter  from Assistant Counsel,  Department of  the Navy,  to the
   Board (Mar. 25, 1993).
 
        The  Board  has  independently  reviewed  the  documentation
   submitted in support  of the motion for costs  and concludes that
   the attorney fees sought are proper and eminently  reasonable, as
   are the disbursements.
 
                                Decision
 
        The Board GRANTS protester's motion to recover $67,474.53 in
   attorney  fees  and  disbursements  incurred  in litigating  this
   protest.
