Section 2 - Relevant Delivery and Quality Performance Narratives Limited to two pages maximum for each reference.

L.4.2.2 Contract References:

Recent contracts are defined as prime contracts, task orders, delivery orders or subcontracts where services or deliverables were performed, or are still being performed, anytime within three years of issuance of this solicitation. The U.S. Government reserves the right to consider any significant past performance information that is recent and relevant after the solicitation closing date and prior to award. Relevant means performance that demonstrates that the Offeror has performed on contracts involving quality assurances and manufacturing processes that are the same or similar in scope, complexity, and magnitude as described in the solicitation, in accordance with the TDP and solicitation requirements. The degree to which the contracts are comparable with regard to the complexity, size of the production quantities, and total dollar value to the solicited effort may also be considered in determining relevance.

The Offeror shall provide three total references maximum, using PPQ Form Sections 2-A and 2-B completed only.

Contract references shall represent recent, relevant performance under past or current contracts (including Federal, State and local government and private) for efforts similar to the Government requirement.

The burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information remains with the Offeror. Offerors are advised that the U.S.

Government may use independent data to evaluate an Offerors past performance. The U.S. Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure problems. The U.S. Government is not obligated to make another request for the required information.

References provided on classified contracts cannot be verified and will not be evaluated. Recent contracts to foreign entities will only be verified when a point of contact (POC) with phone number and email is provided.

L.4.2.3 Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ):

The contract information to be provided by the Offeror with each contract reference is on the PPQ, Attachment 0002 of Section J. The

Offeror must complete PPQ Sections 2-A and 2-B for each contract reference and send copies of the PPQ to the respondent(s) Point of

Contact (POC) as identified in 2-A. The Offeror shall include these documents in Volume II, Section 1 of the proposal. If the Offeror fails to provide proof of submission of the PPQ in Volume II, Section 1 of the proposal, then the Offerors proposal shall be deemed non-compliant. The PPQ respondent(s) shall send the completed questionnaire directly to the U.S. Government POC as shown in Section 3-C of the PPQ by the closing date of the solicitation. Therefore, it is up to the Offeror to provide the PPQ to the respondent within sufficient time for them to complete and return to the U.S. Government POC by the closing date of the solicitation.
