Additionally, the Offeror shall submit contract information as outlined in Attachment S-9 associated with at least one (1) recent and relevant contract effort for each proposed subcontractor that it proposes to perform more than ten percent (10%) of the total contract efforts based on the Offeror’s total proposal price.

Where the Offeror or its proposed subcontractor does not have recent and relevant past performance information, the Offeror shall affirmatively state that it or its proposed subcontractor does not have recent and relevant past performance information for the Government to consider.

NOTE: The Government reserves the right to use the contract information provided in the Offeror’s proposal to obtain data from other sources, such as the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) database, the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) (https://www.ppirs.gov/), and from the points of contact identified by the Offeror in its proposal.

The Past Performance factor will be rated on an Acceptable/Unacceptable basis. The Government will use information provided by the Offeror, as well as any other information deemed necessary as noted in Section L, V, B, 2 to assess the Offeror’s ability to meet the solicitation requirements. This assessment will be based on a demonstrated record of past performance, taking into consideration the recency and relevancy of the past performance information. The Government may also evaluate the past performance of the Offeror’s proposed subcontractors. In evaluating an Offeror’s past performance, the Government reserves the right to contact former customers, Government agencies and other private and public sources of information.

In the case of an Offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the Offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance (see FAR 15.305 (a)(2)(iv)). Therefore, the Offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, unknown past performance shall be considered acceptable. The evaluation will include information provided by the Offeror demonstrating compliance with the requirements of FAR 52.219-8 and 52.219-9.
