PAST PERFORMANCE EVALUATION

QUESTIONNARIE FORM

The United State Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) is solicitation proposals for the “Refuge Management South Texas Endangered Ocelot Protection and Recovery Services (EOPRS)”. EOPRS will be an overarching approach for improving the genetic composition of existing populations in Texas, builds a new ocelot population in Texas, and steers Thornscrub forest restoration to improve the quality and amount of habitat for ocelots in Texas.

One of the considerations in proposal evaluations is the verification of the offeror’s past and present performance on contracts, which reflect the offeror’s ability to perform on the proposed effort. The Government depends on information received from Agencies such as yours, which have had firsthand experience with an offeror, for the evaluation of the offeror’s performance on those contract(s).

The areas of interest for the Government are summarized in the questionnaire below. Questionnaires should be completed and returned to the offeror for submission with their proposal. Proposals are due May 1. 2023 so we kindly ask for your respond by April 17, 2023, so it can be included in the proposal submission.

Please complete all sections of the attached questionnaire. Include your name and title, organizational address, email address, telephone number. Use the rating scale and definitions found in the questionnaire to rate each performance element. Please sign the questionnaire.

The Government encourages comments. The last page may be used if additional space is needed for comments.

Clear handwritten responses are sufficient.

Thank you for your time and participation.

Sincerely, Joni Dutcher Contract Specialist
