Marginal Proposal minimally meets requirements and/or minimally demonstrates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements. The proposal has one or more weaknesses which are not offset by strengths. Risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

EVALUTION FACTOR #2

Past Performance/Corporate Experience will first be evaluated to determine if the Offeror has relevant or non-relevant past performance in the areas of similarity of service/support, complexity, dollar value, and contract type.

NOTE: There are two aspects to the Past Performance/Corporate Experience evaluation.

Factor 2: Past Performance/Corporate Experience Relevancy Rating (Aspect One)

Very Relevant Offeror’s past performance demonstrates contracts/accounts of same or similar services as proposed in the RFP that includes working with a document distribution system in a secure environment.

Past performance effort involved essentially the same scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Relevant Offeror’s past performance demonstrates contract/accounts that possess some of the services as proposed in the RFP that include similar scope within a secure environment.

Past performance effort involved similar scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Somewhat Relevant Offeror’s past performance demonstrates contract/accounts that possess some of the services as proposed in the RFP that include similar scope, however are not executed in a secure environment.

Past performance effort involved some of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Past Performance/Corporate Experience will then be evaluated to determine how well the Offeror performed on past contracts. Sources of Past Performance Information are information as solicited, past performance information from questionnaires and other past performance information such as Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS) or Electronic Subcontracting Reporting System (eSRS).

Factor 2: Past Performance/Corporate Experience Performance Rating (Aspect Two)

EXCEPTIONAL Offeror’s past performance record indicates that the offeror consistently meets contract requirements and exceeds many to the Government’s benefit.

Past contractual performance has been accomplished without problem s for which corrective actions taken by the offeror have been highly effective.

VERY GOOD Offeror’s past performance record indicates that the offeror consistently meets contract requirements and exceeds some to the Government’s benefit. Past contractual performance has been accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the offeror have been effective.

SATISFACTORY Offeror’s past performance record indicates that the offeror has met contract requirements. Offeror’s past performance contains reports of some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the offeror appear to have been or were satisfactory.

MARGINAL Offeror’s past performance record indicates that the offeror has not met some contract requirements. Offeror’s past performance contains reports of serious problems for which the offeror did not identify corrective actions or proposed corrective actions that were only marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

UNSATISFACTORY Offeror’s past performance record indicates that the offeror has not met most contractual requirements, recovery was not accomplished in a timely manner and proposed corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

NEUTRAL Offeror has no relevant record of past performance. Offeror will not be rated favorably or unfavorably.

PERFORMANCE CONFIDENCE

Based on the experience Information received, a Performance Confidence Assessment rating will then be assigned to each Offeror using the Performance Confidence Assessment Table.

Performance Confidence Assessment

Non-Relevant Past performance effort involved little or none of the scope and magnitude of effort and complexities this solicitation requires.

Substantial Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence

Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on the offeror’s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence (Neutral)

No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror’s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.
