The Government may contact references beyond those identified by the offeror to obtain additional information for use in both the responsibility determination and in further evaluation of the offerors's past performance. The Government will focus on information that demonstrates quality of performance relative to the size and complexity of the procurement under consideration.

Offerors with no past experience in providing services/products similar to governments stated objectives shall state so.

The final determination of past performance ratings shall rest with the contracting officer.

An offeror with limited or no recent or relevant past performance will receive a rating of Neutral/Unknown Confidence, and will not be rated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.
