Experience in a role other than Project Manager or Project Architect for project submitted will not qualify as specialized experience and technical competence. If project description does not clearly define the work performed by the Project Manager or Project Architect or if a project does not include the requested data, that project may be evaluated as less favorable or less qualified.

SELECTION CRITERION (3): PAST PERFORMANCE

Firms will be evaluated on past performance on relevant projects with Government agencies and private industry in terms of work quality, compliance with schedules, cost control, small business utilization and stakeholder/customer satisfaction. Evaluation of past performance will include information provided in Past Performance Questionnaires (PPQs) or CPARS for Selection Criterion (1) relevant projects and may include customer inquiries, Government databases, and other information available to the Government. [Note: Past performance information for relevant projects listed under Selection Criterion (1) will be considered more favorably.]

SELECTION CRITERION (3) SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS:

SF330, Part I, Section H. For each relevant project submitted in response to Selection Criterion (1), Firm’s Specialized Experience, submit a DD2631, Performance Evaluation (Architect- Engineer) or Contractor Performance Assessment Report (CPARS) Architect-Engineer evaluation. If a DD2631 or CPARS is not available, submit a NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ), included with this announcement as Attachment A, with the SF330. Ensure correct phone numbers and email addresses are provided for the client point of contact. Do not submit a PPQ when a completed DD2631 or CPARS is available.

NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire shall be from the contracting agent and/or their representative responsible for the contract administration, or from the facility owner/user.

It shall not be from the prime contractor on a Design-Build project nor shall it be from a prime contractor to a subcontractor. If work was performed as a subcontractor for a project under Selection Criterion (1), provide a completed Past Performance Questionnaire.

NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire previously completed for other announcements/RFPs may also be submitted.

The information provided in the SF330 may provide the major portion of the information used in the Government’s evaluation for past performance. The Government however, is not restricted to the information provided in the SF330 and may use other sources to assess past performance information such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) and inquiries with previous customers/owners. PPIRS will be evaluated for the firm that will perform the work and search will be based upon the CAGE/DUNS number provided for the firm.

If the AE received any less than Satisfactory past performance evaluations from customers/owners for projects submitted under Selection Criterion (1), it is incumbent upon the AE to provide an explanation of the rating, problems encountered, the corrective actions taken on the project, and what will be done to preclude less than satisfactory ratings on future contracts.

Information shall not exceed two double-sided pages (or four single sided pages) in total.

Awards, letters of commendation, certificates of appreciation, etc. shall not be submitted and will not be considered in the evaluation.

A-E subconsultant's past performance on a Design-Bid-Build project will not be given the same level of consideration as the A-E prime contractor’s or JV partner’s.

ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT

YOUR EVALUATION OF THE CONTRACTOR’S PERFORMANCE

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.
