B.3 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE ASSESSMENT REPORTING SYSTEM (CPARS)

As prescribed in FAR Part 42.15, the Department of Veterans Affairs (VA) evaluates contractor past performance on all contracts and contracts that exceed $250,000.00 and shares those evaluations with other Federal Government contract specialists and procurement officials. The FAR requires that the contractor be provided an opportunity to comment on past performance evaluations prior to each report closing. To fulfill this requirement VA uses an online database, CPARS, which is maintained by the Naval Sea Logistics Center in Portsmouth, New Hampshire. CPARS has connectivity with the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) database, which is available to all federal agencies. PPIRS is the system used to collect and retrieve performance assessment reports used in source selection determinations and completed CPARS report cards transferred to PPIRS. CPARS also includes access to Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS). FAPIIS is a web-enabled application accessed via CPARS for contractor responsibility determination information.

Each contractor whose contract award is estimated to exceed $250,000.00 requires a CPARs evaluation. A government Focal Point will register your contract within 30 days after award and, at that time, you will receive and email message with a User ID (to be used when reviewing evaluations). Additional information regarding the evaluation process can be found at www.cpars.gov or if you have any questions you may contact the Customer Support Desk at DSN: 684-1690 or COMM: 207-438-1690.

For contracts with a period of one year or less, the contracting officer will perform a single evaluation when the contract is complete. For contracts exceeding one year, the contracting officer will evaluate the contractor’s performance annually. Interim reports will be filed each year until the last year of the contract, when the final report will be completed. The report shall be assigned in CPARS to the contractor’s designated representative for comment. The contractor representative will have 60 days to submit any comments and re-assign the report to the CO.

Failure for the contractor’s representative to respond to the evaluation within those 60 days will result in the governments evaluation being placed on file in the database with a statement that the contractor failed to respond. The Contractor’s representative will be locked out of the evaluation and may no longer send comments.

Employer's liability coverage of at least $100,000 is required, except in States with exclusive or monopolistic funds that do not permit workers' compensation to be written by private carriers.
