It is the contractor's responsibility to confirm receipt of proposal. (b)(10) Submit past performance information to include recent and relevant contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other relevant information). Submit past performance information to include recent and relevant contracts which demonstrate the ability of the offeror to perform the proposed effort. Please provide past performance information for no more than five (5) relevant contracts performed for Government agencies and commercial customers within the last three (3) years. To the maximum extent practicable, identify contracts for properties which are not owned or operated by your firm or by key personnel, including intended subcontractors, of your firm. Data independently obtained from other Government and commercial sources. To assess performance, the Government will use information submitted by the offeror and other sources, such as other Federal and other Governmental agencies, commercial sources, and Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). The purpose of the past performance evaluation is to allow the Government to assess the offeror's ability to perform the effort described in this RFP based on the offeror's demonstrated present and past performance. The assessment process will result in an overall performance confidence assessment of Substantial Confidence, Satisfactory Confidence, Limited Confidence, No Confidence, or Unknown Confidence as defined in the table below. Offerors with no relevant past or present performance history or the offeror's performance record is so limited that no confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned shall receive the rating "Unknown Confidence," meaning the rating is treated neither favorably nor unfavorably. (1) The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received. (2) Past performance is significantly more important than cost or price. The Government reserves the right to pay a higher price for an offer with Substantial Confidence past performance rating. A Substantial Confidence or Satisfactory Confidence rating is worth more than a Neutral Confidence past performance rating. However, price will contribute to the award decision. The balance of CLIN pricing will also be assessed. Severely unbalanced pricing could lead to exclusion of an offeror's proposal. The price must be fair and reasonable IAW FAR 13.106-3(a). The Government will evaluate the quality and extent of offerors performance deemed relevant to the requirements of this RFP. The Government will use information submitted by the offeror and other resources, such as other Federal Government Offices, Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) within the Past Performance Information Retrieval Systems (PPIRS), and commercial sources, to assess performance. Referenced past performance information should include contract numbers, points of contract with telephone numbers, and a narrative explaining the contract's relevancy to the solicitation. Serviceable square footage is a key factor in determining relevancy. (2) Quality and Satisfaction Rating for Contracts Completed in the Past Three Years: Provide information currently available (letters, metrics, customer surveys, independent surveys, etc.) which demonstrates customer satisfaction with overall job performance and quality of completed product for same or similar type contract. In addition, explain corrective actions taken in the past, if any, for substandard performance and any current performance problems such as cost overruns, extended performance periods, numerous warranty calls, etc. (b)(11) Offers that fail to furnish required representations, information, or reject the terms and conditions of the solicitation may be excluded from consideration. (g) Contract award. The Government intends to evaluate offers and award a contract without discussions with offerors. Therefore, the offeror's initial offer should contain the offeror's best terms from a price and technical standpoint. However, the Government reserves the right to conduct discussions if later determined by the Contracting Officer to be necessary. The Government may reject any or all offers if such action is in the public interest; accept other than the lowest offer; and waive informalities and minor irregularities in offers received. Past performance is significantly more important than cost or price. The Government reserves the right to pay a higher price for an offer with Substantial Confidence past performance rating. A Substantial Confidence or Satisfactory Confidence rating is worth more than a Neutral Confidence past performance rating. However, price will contribute to the award decision. The balance of CLIN pricing will also be assessed. Severely unbalanced pricing could lead to exclusion of an offeror's proposal. The price must be fair and reasonable IAW FAR 13.106-3(a). IAW FAR 13.106-2(b)(4)(ii), where an evaluation is based only on price and past performance, make an award based on whether the lowest priced of the quotations or offers having the highest past performance rating possible represents the best value when compared to any lower priced quotation or offer.
