2) Quotes submitted in response to this solicitation shall include a Past Performance, Price, and Contractor Representations and Certifications:

a) FACTOR I – PAST PERFORMANCE - The Past Performance evaluation shall be accomplished by reviewing aspects of an quoter's recent and relevant Past Performance, focusing on and targeting performance which is relevant to the effort as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation and as defined in Addendum to FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation – Commercial Items.

i) Past Performance information described herein is required on the quoter and all subcontractors, teaming partners, and/or joint venture partners proposed to perform 15% of the proposed effort based on the total proposed price.

ii) Relevant Past Performance. The quoter shall provide documentation regarding their relevant past performance as it directly relates to the work being procured under this solicitation which is similar in nature, size, and complexity to the services being procured under this solicitation. The quoter SHALL NOT go back any farther than 3 years for the submitted data. Include a brief description of the project, dollar amount, year completed, and project owner contact information (name, phone, and email).

iii) In conducting the Past Performance evaluation, the Government reserves the right to use both the information provided in the quoter’s Past Performance submission and information obtained from other sources, such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) or similar systems, The Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) at https://www.cpars.gov, and commercial sources. Quoters are reminded that both independent data and data provided by quoters in their offers may be used by the Government to evaluate quoters past performance. However, the burden of providing thorough, complete, and current past performance information as requested in this paragraph remains with the quoters. Quotes that do not contain the information requested by this paragraph risk receiving an unacceptable performance rating by the Government. The overall past performance evaluation is a subjective decision based on the whole of all data received. In the case of a quoter without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the quoter may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance. Therefore, the quoter shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”
