About this file
This is a Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) template used by PBS (likely the General Services Administration's PBS division) to evaluate contractor performance on completed federal contracts. The form is designed to be completed by clients or government contracting officers who have direct experience with a contractor's work and submitted by offerors as part of proposal evaluations.
The questionnaire captures contractor information (firm name, DUNS number, contact details) and contract details (contract number, type, award and completion dates, pricing). It evaluates performance across seven primary categories using a six-point rating scale (Exceptional, Very Good, Satisfactory, Marginal, Unsatisfactory, Not Applicable). The quality category assesses technical data preparation, adherence to quality standards, problem resolution, and quality control effectiveness. Schedule/timeliness evaluates delivery compliance and resource utilization. Customer satisfaction measures end-user satisfaction, contractor cooperation, and overall customer relationships. Management/personnel/labor assesses on-site management, workforce qualification and retention, government property control, technical expertise, small business utilization, multi-project capability, change management, and overall program leadership. Cost/financial management rates the contractor's ability to meet contractually agreed prices, propose cost-saving innovations, invoice timeliness and accuracy (for cost-type contracts), accounting system adequacy, and any contract terminations or financial problems. Safety/security and general compliance categories evaluate safety plan adherence, security requirements compliance, emergency response capability, and overall contractual compliance. The form also includes sections for sustainability practices and whether the client would rehire the contractor, with a comments section for narrative feedback addressing specific strengths, weaknesses, and performance risks.

RATING
DEFINITION
NOTE
(E) Exceptional Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective.
An Exceptional rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed multiple significant events that were of benefit to the Government/Owner. A singular benefit, however, could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an Exceptional rating. Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.
(VG) Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the Government’s/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.
A Very Good rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed a significant event that was a benefit to the Government/Owner. There should have been no significant weaknesses identified.
(S) Satisfactory Performance meets minimum 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.
A Satisfactory rating is appropriate when there were only minor problems, or major problems that the contractor recovered from without impact to the contract. There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. Per DOD policy, a fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract.
(M) Marginal 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.
A Marginal is appropriate when a significant event occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming which impacted the Government/Owner.
(U) Unsatisfactory 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.
An Unsatisfactory rating is appropriate when multiple significant events occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming and which impacted the Government/Owner. A singular problem, however, could be of such serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating.
(N) Not Applicable No information or did not apply to your contract Rating will be neither positive nor negative.
