There are two aspects to the past performance information to be submitted: (1) Relevant Company Effort and (2) Quality of Past Performance.

• Where the word "project” and/or “effort(s)" appears, it is understood to mean single contract(s) that involved a fixed price or cost-reimbursement type contract.

• “Relevant” past performance information is one indicator of an offeror’s ability to perform the contract successfully. Where the word “relevant” appears it is understood to mean that a single project effort submitted is similar and logically connected to the context of this solicitation in terms of scope (dollar value, size, project type), magnitude of effort, and complexities, as the work described in this solicitation.
