Present/Past Performance Questionnaire for Contract(s) .

1. We are currently responding to the Department of the Air Force (AF), Robins Air Force Base (RAFB), Request For Proposal (RFP) FA8555-13-R-0001, for the procurement of the 8(a) Advisory and Assistance to the C2ISR program office. This RFP is being conducted as a Tradeoff Source Selection and specifically requires that we, as an offeror, do the following:

The offeror shall send out the Present/Past Performance Questionnaire to each of the offeror’s, critical subcontractors’, and/or joint venture partners’ Points of Contact (POCs). The responsibility to send out the Present/Past Performance Questionnaires rests solely with the offeror - i.e., it shall not be delegated to any subcontractors and/or joint venture partners. The completed Present/Past Performance Questionnaire shall be submitted directly to the Government not later than OFFEROR FILL-IN RFP CLOSING DATE. Each of the offeror’s POCs may submit its completed Present/Past Performance Questionnaire either electronically or by mail. If sending electronically, the following applies:

Exchanges of source selection information between government and questionnaire respondents will be controlled by the Contracting Officer. Email may be used to transmit such information only if the email can be sent and encrypted, and must include “Source Selection Information – See FAR 2.101 and 3.104” in the subject line of the email. In order to facilitate the sending and receiving of encrypted emails, a questionnaire respondent must use MS Outlook email configured to support encryption, or, a different email product that is S/MIME compatible and configured to support encryption. If you intend to submit your completed questionnaire via an encrypted email, you will need to contact the Buyer/Contracting Officer indicated below, prior to that first submittal, in order to exchange certificates used for encryption. To ensure the process is working correctly, send a test encrypted message first (without including any source selection information). If the offeror’s computer system cannot support encryption technology, the offeror shall send the contracting officer correspondence at the time that it submits its proposal stating that it accepts the risk of sending and receiving unencrypted electronic mail if it chooses to utilize unencrypted email as a channel of communication. Email to: aflcmc.hbg.ecg@robins.af.mil .
