Such revisions or amendments will be communicated by amendments to the Request for Proposal (RFP) and posted on the SAM.gov website. If such amendments require material changes in quantities or prices, the proposal closing date may be postponed by enough days to enable offerors to revise their proposals. In such cases, the amendment will include an announcement of the new closing date and time.

Offerors must provide past performance information to establish Recency and Relevancy on all Federal contracts before State, local government or private contracts. The Government's evaluation of past performance information will take into account past performance information regarding predecessor companies, key personnel who have relevant experience, or subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects (See Teaming Agreements, para 4.2), when such information is relevant to the instant acquisition. Offerors are required to explain what aspects of each contract are deemed relevant to complexity and magnitude as related to the requirements of this solicitation and in accordance with Section M. Failure to provide required relevancy description may impact the confidence rating, (i.e. aspects of previous projects should match work elements identified in the Solicitation/PWS).

The summary should explain what aspects of each contract are deemed recent and relevant as related to the requirements of this solicitation and in accordance with Section M. Failure to provide required relevancy description may impact the confidence rating, (i.e. aspects of previous projects should match work elements identified in the solicitation/PWS). The maximum number of past performance references shall not exceed 10. The summary should not exceed 2 pages per reference (maximum total of 20 pages) and include:

4.1.1.1 Each proposal shall provide current and relevant information regarding an offeror's actions under previously awarded contracts

a) Recency Assessment An assessment of the past performance information will be made to determine if it is recent. To be recent, the effort must be ongoing or must have been performed during the past three (3) years from the issuance month of this solicitation. Past performance information that fails this condition will not be evaluated.

b) Relevancy Assessment

The Government will conduct an in-depth evaluation of all recent performance information obtained to determine how closely the services performed under those contracts relate to the Technical factor and Cost/Price factor. Consideration will be given to projects involving the type of services described in the attached PWS. A relevancy determination of the offeror's past performance will be made based upon the aforementioned considerations, including joint venture partner(s). In determining relevancy for individual contracts, consideration will be given to the effort, or portion of the effort, being proposed by the offeror or teaming partner whose contract is being reviewed and evaluated. The past performance questionnaires and information obtained from other sources will be used to establish the degree of relevancy of past performance.

4.1.2 Complete Section A, Contractor Information, of Attachment 4, Past/Present Performance Questionnaire and mail, or email the attached Past/Present Performance Questionnaire to all past performance references in the list you provide and instruct them to return the completed questionnaire to the individual(s) indicated in paragraph 4.1.3 below. Evaluators are only allowed to use the Attachment 4, Past Performance Questionnaire.

Altered or substituted questionnaires will not be evaluated. Also, Past Performance Questionnaires will only be accepted electronically by email from Project Owners or their authorized representatives. Past Performance Questionnaires will not be accepted from Prime Contractors, Subcontractors, or Manufacturers. Offerors are responsible to ensure questionnaires are transmitted to their references, and to indicate which references the questionnaire was sent to.

4.1.3 Inform your references that they shall forward questionnaires electronically by email directly to the address below. Questionnaires must be received in the 1st Special Operations Contracting Squadron office not later than the closing date of the solicitation. Offerors are responsible for ensuring their references transmit the questionnaire to the Contracting Office. In lieu of a Past/Present Performance Questionnaire, if a project is currently available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), the contractor should attach the evaluation to the questionnaire with the relevant solicitation number and submit directly to the 1st Special Operations Contracting Squadron office before the official closing date and time. Electronic submissions shall be sent to:

Charles Carnley - charles.carnley@us.af.mil Kathryn Kester - kathryn.kester@us.af.mil

4.1.4 Lack of any past performance will not automatically disqualify an offeror, but it is a factor that is considered in the Best Value Performance Price Tradeoff Source Selection described in Section M.

4.1.5 If the offeror claims there is no past performance, then that status must be identified to the contracting officer not later than the date/time proposals are due from all offerors.

provided, the agreements are identified and company relationships are fully disclosed in an offer. A teaming agreement must establish each party's role in the proposal preparation process and will be incorporated into the contract. Failure to clearly define roles and/or provide a teaming agreement with a proposal shall make teaming arrangements and related subcontractor past performance ineligible for evaluation and consideration of award.

The prime contractor shall remain fully responsible for contract performance, regardless of any teaming agreement between the prime contractor and its subcontractors. Teaming Agreements must provide the following information as part of their proposal, Volume II (b), not later than the date/time proposals are due:

4.2.1.1 Clearly establish roles of each party (who is prime and who is subcontractor, who is responsible for what tasks, contract administration, proposals, work management, etc.)

4.2.1.2 Provide for protection of competition-sensitive proprietary information. (Subcontractor past performance cannot be disclosed to the prime offeror without the subcontractor's consent). Provide a letter from all subcontractors that will perform major or critical aspects of the requirement, consenting to the release of their past performance information to the prime contractor, only if it is being used as part of the past performance evaluation.

4.2.1.3 Identify each member's share of the prospective contract, 50/50, 51/49, etc.

4.2.1.4 Exclusivity. Assurance that the team member will not be replaced for the duration of the contract, any exceptions should be identified. Assurance that the team members are not teaming with another firm for the same procurement.
