16.2.2. Periodic Inspection: Evaluation of some outcomes and deliverables. Services are sampled to determine if performance level is acceptable.

16.2.3. Customer Input: Customer feedback on the quality and timeliness of services provided to determine if performance level is acceptable

16.3. PERFORMANCE RATINGS: The following rating definitions can be used as a guide when completing the Performance Assessment:

16.3.1. Outstanding Performance meets all contractual requirements and exceeds most to the government's benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with almost no minor problems for which corrective actions were taken by the contractor, and the corrective actions were highly effective.

16.3.2. Excellent Performance meets all contractual requirements and exceeds some to the government's benefit. The contractual performance element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with very few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were highly effective.

16.3.3 Good Performance meets contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor appear or were satisfactory.

16.3.4. Fair Satisfactory Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor's proposed actions appear only marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

16.3.5. Poor Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner.

The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor's corrective actions appear or were ineffective.
