DOI-AAAP-0050- Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (December 2015) FAR 42.1502 directs all Federal agencies to collect past performance information on contracts.

The Department of the Interior (DOI) has implemented the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to comply with this regulation. One or more past performance

Document Title

Archaeological Surveys for SPRO (Oklahoma) Page

5/29/2026 evaluations will be conducted in order to record your contract performance as required by FAR

42.15. 2) The past performance evaluation process is a totally paperless process using CPARS.

CPARS is a web-based system that allows for electronic processing of the performance evaluation report. Once the report is processed, it is available in the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) for Government use in evaluating past performance as part of a source selection action. 3) We request that you furnish the Contracting Officer (CO) with the name, position title, phone number, and email address for each person designated to have access to your firm's past performance evaluation(s) for the contract no later than 30 days after award. Each person granted access will have the ability to provide comments in the Contractor portion of the report and state whether or not the Contractor agrees with the evaluation, before returning the report to the Assessing Official (AO). Information in the report must be protected as source selection sensitive information not releasable to the public. 4) When your Contractor Representative(s) are registered in CPARS, they will receive an automatically generated email with detailed login instructions. Further details, systems requirements, and training information for CPARS is available at https://www.cpars.gov/. 5)Within 60 days after the end of a performance period, the AO will complete an interim or final past performance evaluation, and the report will be accessible at https://www.cpars.gov/. a) Contractor Representatives may then provide comments in response to the evaluation or return the evaluation without comment. b) Your comments should focus on objective facts in the AO's narrative and should provide your views on the causes and ramifications of the assessed performance. c) All information provided should be reviewed for accuracy prior to submission.

d) If you elect not to provide comments, please acknowledge receipt of the evaluation by indicating "No comment" in the space provided, and then selecting “Accept the Ratings and Close the Evaluation”. e) Your response is due within 60 calendar days after receipt of the CPAR. On day 15, the evaluation will become available in PPIRS-RC marked as “Pending” with or without comments and whether or not it has been closed. f) If you do not sign and submit the CPAR within 60 days, it will automatically be returned to the Government and will be annotated:

"The report was delivered/received by the contractor on (date). The contractor neither signed nor offered comment in response to this assessment." 6) The following guidelines apply concerning your use of the past performance evaluation: a) Protect the evaluation as source selection information. After review, transmit the evaluation by completing and submitting the form through CPARS. If for some reason you are unable to view and/or submit the form through CPARS, contact the CO for instructions. b) Strictly control access to the evaluation within your organization. Ensure the evaluation is never released to persons or entities outside of your control. c) Prohibit the use of or reference to evaluation data for advertising, promotional material, pre-award surveys, responsibility determinations, production readiness reviews, or other similar purposes. 7) If you wish to discuss a past performance evaluation, you should request a meeting in writing to the CO no later than seven days following your receipt of the evaluation. The meeting will be held in person or via telephone or other means during your 60-day review period. A copy of the completed past performance evaluation will be available in CPARS for your viewing and for Government use supporting source selection actions after it has been finalized.

(B) Have □ have not □, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been convicted of or had a civil judgment rendered against them for: commission of fraud or a criminal offense in connection with obtaining, attempting to obtain, or performing a public (Federal, State, or local) contract or subcontract; violation of Federal or State antitrust statutes relating to the submission of offers; or commission of embezzlement, theft, forgery, bribery, falsification or destruction of records, making false statements, tax evasion, violating Federal criminal tax laws, or receiving stolen property (if offeror checks "have", the offeror shall also see, if included in this solicitation);

(C) Are □ are not □ presently indicted for, or otherwise criminally or civilly charged by a governmental entity with, commission of any of the offenses enumerated in paragraph (a)(1)(i)(B) of this provision; and

(D) Have □, have not □, within a three-year period preceding this offer, been notified of any delinquent Federal taxes in an amount that exceeds the threshold at 9.104-5(a)(2) for which the liability remains unsatisfied. Federal taxes are considered delinquent if both of the following criteria apply:

(1) The tax liability is finally determined. The liability is finally determined if it has been assessed. A liability is not finally determined if a pending administrative or judicial challenge remains. In the case of a judicial challenge to the liability, the liability is not finally determined until all judicial appeal rights have been exhausted.

(2) The taxpayer is delinquent in making payment. A taxpayer is delinquent if the taxpayer has failed to pay the tax liability when full payment was due and required. A taxpayer is not delinquent in cases where enforced collection action is precluded.

(ii) The Offeror has □ has not □, within a 3-year period preceding this offer, had one or more contracts terminated for default by any Federal agency.

(2) "Principal," for the purposes of this certification, means an officer, director, owner, partner, or a person having primary management or supervisory responsibilities within a business entity (e.g., general manager; plant manager; head of a division or business segment; and similar positions).

(b) The Offeror shall provide immediate written notice to the Contracting Officer if, at any time prior to contract award, the Offeror learns that its certification was erroneous when submitted or has become erroneous by reason of changed circumstances.

(c) A certification that any of the items in paragraph (a) of this provision exists will not necessarily result in withholding of an award under this solicitation. However, the Government will consider the certification in connection with a determination of the Offeror's responsibility.

Failure of the Offeror to furnish a certification or provide such additional information as requested by the Contracting Officer may render the Offeror nonresponsible.

(d) This provision does not require establishment of a system of records in order to render, in good faith, the certification required by paragraph (a). The knowledge and information of an Offeror is not required to exceed that which is normally possessed by a prudent person in the ordinary course of business dealings.

(e) The certification in paragraph (a) of this provision is a material representation of fact upon which reliance was placed when making award. If the Government later determines that the Offeror knowingly rendered an erroneous certification, in addition to other remedies available to the Government, the Contracting Officer may terminate the contract resulting from this solicitation for default.

FAR 52.212-2 Evaluation—Commercial Products and Commercial Services ((RFO DEVIATION) (Mar 2026)

Basis of Award

(a) The Government will make a single award to responsible offeror whose quotation is most advantageous to the Government, considering technical capability, past performance, and price.

The Government may use comparative evaluation and does not intend to establish a competitive range or conduct discussions.

Evaluation Factors

Factor 1: Technical Capability (Pass/Fail) The Government will evaluate the extent to which the quote demonstrates the ability to meet the requirements of the Statement of Work, including:

• A proposed Principal Investigator and Field Supervisor who meet Secretary of the Interior Professional Qualification Standards for Archaeology (36 CFR Part 61);

• Field crew with professional training in archaeological methods;

• Ability to execute survey methods required by the SOW (e.g., pedestrian transects, shovel tests, mapping, reporting);

• Capability to deliver required GIS mapping and shapefiles.

Quotes lacking required resumes, qualifications, or a clear ability to perform the SOW will be rated Fail.

Factor 2 – Methodology (Pass/Fail) The Government will evaluate whether the quote provides a clear, concise explanation of how the contractor will complete all survey tasks, report preparation, mapping, and timelines specified in the SOW. Methodology must demonstrate understanding of Section 106 expectations and Oklahoma SHPO/OAS standards. Incomplete or unclear methodologies will be rated Fail.

Factor 3 – Past Performance (Acceptable/Neutral/Unacceptable) The Government will perform a comparative assessment of the offeror’s past performance on similar cultural resource surveys within the Southern Plains region (Oklahoma, Texas, Kansas).

Past performance may be obtained from references, CPARS, or other reasonable sources.

• Acceptable: Information indicates a likelihood of successful performance.

• Neutral: No relevant past performance available.

• Unacceptable: Information indicates a risk of unsuccessful performance.

Factor 4 – Price The Government will evaluate price for reasonableness and completeness, including labor rates, hours, travel, fieldwork, GIS tasks, and reporting. Price may be compared among quotes for best value but will not be scored.

Award Decision

The Government will base award on a holistic consideration of all factors. Technical capability and methodology are more important than past performance, and all non-price factors combined are significantly more important than price. A quotation rated Fail in Factors 1 or 2 is ineligible for award.

(b) Options. The Government will evaluate offers for award purposes by adding the total price for all options to the total price for the basic requirement. The Government may determine that an offer is unacceptable if the option prices are significantly unbalanced. Evaluation of options shall not obligate the Government to exercise the option(s).

A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer's specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
