The CPARS assesses a contractor’s performance and provides a record, both positive and negative, on a given contract during a specific period of time. Each assessment must be based on objective (or measurable subjective) data.

All CPARS information is treated as “For Official Use Only/Source Selection Information” in accordance with FAR 3.104 and the DoD Guide to Collection and Use of Past Performance Information. Access to the CPARS Automated Information System (AIS) is restricted to those individuals with an official need to know.

A copy of the monthly status report shall be provided to the Contracting Officer. Issues and concerns that cannot be resolved at the working level or which impact on contractual requirements shall be reported to the Contracting Officer for resolution and contractual action.

9.2. The COR is designated as Assessing Official Representative for the CPARs assessments.

Each Year, by 30 Oct, the COR shall complete an assessment of the contractor’s performance for the previous fiscal year. The COR shall use the Monthly Evaluations as the basis for the Yearly Assessment.
