Offerors must provide past performance information to establish Recency and Relevancy on all Federal contracts before State, local government or private contracts. The NAFI'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 and JV's, paragraphs 7.0 and 8.0 below), 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/Specifications).

6.1.1 Provide a summary of the previous contracts described above. 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.

SECTION L CONTINUED

g) Comments regarding any known performance deemed unacceptable to the customer, or not in accordance with the contract terms and conditions.

6.2 Each proposal shall provide recent 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 five (5) years from the issuance month of this solicitation. Past performance information that fails this condition will not be evaluated. In lieu of a complete project, the Offeror may submit projects that are ongoing as long as, (a) the project is at least 75% complete by this solicitation's issuance date, and (b) the Offeror can validate completion percentage with an approved progress report. For commercial contracts, an equivalent customer validation of progress completion report (signed) may be used in lieu of a NAFI approved progress report.

b) Relevancy Assessment:

An in-depth evaluation of all recent performance information will be conducted to determine how closely the products provided/services performed under those contracts relate to the Cost/Price factor and Technical factor, including their relative order of importance [reference Section M, paragraph 2.0, Evaluation Factors]. Consideration will be given to projects involving the type of construction and work elements described in the attached Specifications. Relevant past performance information must demonstrate construction experience involving the type of construction and work elements described in the attached Specifications, Section 01 10 00, paragraph 1.1.1 Project Description, and costs comparable to the project magnitude as specified in Block 10 for the SF 1442, Request for Proposal. As applicable, 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 and present performance. If past performance information is submitted under an Indefinite Delivery/Indefinite Quantity (IDIQ), the service provider must identify the delivery/task order(s) relevant to that effort. Use one Past Performance Information Form for each delivery/task order cited.

6.3 The use of the Attachment L1, Past Performance Questionnaire is only for projects that are not listed in CPARS. The questionnaire is required to be mailed or emailed 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 1.1.5 above. Evaluators are only allowed to use the provided Past Performance Questionnaire form found in Section L.

Company developed questionnaires or questionnaires developed by other organizations will not be evaluated. Also, Questionnaires must be completed by Project Owners, Inspectors, Contracting Officers, or their authorized representatives only. Questionnaires will not be accepted from Prime Contractors, Subcontractors, or Manufacturers.

6.4 Inform your references that completed questionnaires are to be submitted electronically by email directly to the addresses in paragraph 1.1.5 above. Questionnaires should be received not later than the closing date and time of the solicitation. Offerors are responsible for ensuring their references transmit the questionnaire to the Contracting Office.

6.5 Lack of any past performance will not automatically disqualify an offeror, but it is a factor that is considered in the Lowest Price Technically Acceptable Source Selection process described in Section M.

6.6 If the offeror claims that 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.

7.0 - Teaming Agreements must comply with 13 CFR Part 121 - Small Business Size Regulations and be registered in Signed Teaming Agreement SAM.gov. The teaming members must provide complete information as to relevant and recent past performance information on previous teaming agreements. If this is a first-time joint effort, each party to the teaming agreement must provide information on all relevant contracts as specified in paragraph 6.2 (b) above. The maximum number of references combined shall not exceed 10 per teaming partner.

7.1 The NAFI/Contracting Officer will recognize the integrity and validity of formal contractor Teaming Agreements; 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.

7.2 Teaming Agreements must provide the following information as part of their proposal, not later than the date/ time proposals are due:

7.3 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.)

7.4 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.

SECTION L CONTINUED

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

7.6 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.

7.7 Statement of acknowledgement that the Prime Contractor is responsible for adhering to contract terms and conditions and daily management. The Prime Contractor is obligated to negotiate in good faith and responsible for conveying mandatory NAFI terms and conditions to subcontractors.

7.8 The prime contractor shall remain fully responsible for contract performance, regardless of any teaming agreement between the prime contractor and its subcontractors.

7.9 At the time of initial contract offer and at time of award, each business must be a small business. In order to submit an offer on a contract, each business concern in a Teaming Agreement must be a small business under the designated NAICS size standard, and must also be small when combined in the aggregate of all teaming affiliates.
