Questions and Answers 36C25724Q0266 Cytotechnologist Service Question #1. In reviewing the solicitation and the past performance requirements state that the Offeror must have past performance hiring Cytotechnologists. Although we don’t have the past performance, we have sourced and screened 3 strong candidates that are interested in the role in order to submit with our proposal.

“In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.”

Is this a hard-set mandatory requirement? If so, will a subcontractor’s past performance count as the prime?

Answer #1. The past performance requirement does not specifically require Cytotechnologist services past performance. We are looking for past performance with providing staffing personnel on prime contracts.
