About this file

This document contains questions and responses related to a federal solicitation for NACE code 242190 - Carter G. Woodson Home and Adjacent Properties. The solicitation is issued by the Department of the Interior National Park Service National Office. One question asks if offerors can present existing past performance evaluations for projects instead of obtaining new evaluations, in order to reduce burden on references during the COVID-19 pandemic. The response indicates no change will be made to the page limit for the past performance factor, and that the government may also use information from the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System in addition to any past performance questionnaires received.

Question SetSet NumberQuestionResponse
A1Factor 5 requires new evaluations. References are often unavailable or unwilling to complete new evaluations when existing evaluations are available. (This is especially true during COVID, when new evaluations can be even more difficult to obtain.) This puts offeror scores for an important Factor outside their own control, and if a reference is not sent in, excellent past performance demonstrated by an existing official evaluation may be disregarded needlessly. In order to avoid burdening references and taking reference preferences into account, and in light of COVID and the sometimes increased difficulty obtaining new evaluations during this time, would the government allow offerors to present existing evaluations for projects, if available and provided they are on official CPARS or other government forms similar in nature to the PPQ associated with this solicitation? We feel that this would not reduce the government’s ability to assess offeror past performance in any material way, and would likely improve the quality of proposals available for the government’s review as well as simply proposal development and submission logistics for both the government and offerors. If approved, can the government also remove or increase the page limit for this Factor?Per Section M of the Solicitation, the Government may also utilize information obtained from CPARS, in addition to the Past Performance Questionnaires (Attachment 5) received for Factor 5 - Past Performance.

If no Past Performance Questionnaires are received for Factor 5, the Government will pull the CPARS Record(s) for the corresponding Contract Examples submitted for Factor 1 - Project Experience / Project Experience Questionnaire (Attachment 4).

No change to the page limit for Factor 5 - Past Performance.
