H.26 - Evaluating Contractor Performance

The General Services Administration, Public Buildings Service, is using the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) modules as the secure, confidential, information management tool to facilitate the performance evaluation process. CPARS enables a comprehensive evaluation by capturing comments from both GSA and the contractor. CPARS is the overall system name; however, it is important to note the different modules within.

CPARS module: This module is used to create past performance evaluations on services procurements.

ACASS module: This is the Architect Engineer Contract Administration Support System. This is used to create past performance evaluations on A-E procurements.

CCASS module: This is the Construction Contractor Appraisal Support System. This is used to create past performance evaluations on construction procurements.

The term #CPARS# will be used to denote the overall evaluation system (the evaluation modules of CPARS, ACASS and CCASS).

Each award requiring an evaluation is registered in CPARS by the Government. The contractor user will receive several automated emails. Within thirty days of award, the contractor user will receive an email that contains user account information, as well as the applicable contract numbers and evaluation module assigned. The contractor user will have one user account set up that will allow access to all three modules.

Contractor users are encouraged to visit the CPARS training webpage to sign up for the free on-line contractor overview training. This is a 1.5 hour training session specifically targeted to contractor users who will provide past performance evaluation comments on PBS evaluations. The URL is http://www.cpars.gov/ allapps/cpartrng/webtrain/webtrain_all.htm

Once the evaluation is readied and released, the contractor user will receive a second email alerting them the evaluation is ready for their review and comment. The contractor user will have thirty (30) days to respond to the evaluation. GSA shall provide for review at a level above the contracting officer (i.e., contracting director) to consider any disagreement between GSA and the contractor user regarding GSA#s evaluation of the contractor#s performance. Based on the review, the individual at a level above the contracting officer will issue the final conclusion on the performance evaluation.

The contractor must provide the contracting officer with the name and email address of the contractor user that will be their past performance point of contact (POC). This is the person responsible for responding to these evaluations. This person will be granted access to CPARS during the award is registered in the system and be assigned the system role of contractor representative (CR).

Copies of the evaluations, contractor responses, and review comments, if any, will be retained as part of the contract file, and may be used by Federal Agencies to support future award decisions.

Descript: The purpose of this amendment is to:

1. Insert CPARS solicitation language in Section H of the solicitation.

Contractor is required to sign and return this amendment with bid. All other terms and condition remain the same. ...See Continuation Page
