Please ensure that all courier and delivery personnel are aware of these procedures.

CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITY, PREAWARD SURVEY:

In order to determine a contractor's responsibility for purposes of contract award in accordance with FAR Part 9, the contractor is required to provide a statement regarding previous experience and past performance in performing comparable work, information related to the business organization, financial resources, and/or plan to be used in performing the work (see Section 00 22 00). All offerors will complete and return the Pre-award Survey as part of the Price/Cost proposal. Failure to submit the Pre-award Survey in conjunction with the price proposal will not of itself render the offer unacceptable.

In order to be determined to be responsible a prospective contractor must:

A. Have adequate financial resources to perform the contract or the ability to obtain them.

B. Be able to comply with the required or proposed delivery or performance schedule, taking into consideration all existing commercial and governmental business commitments.

C. Have a satisfactory performance record.

D. Have a satisfactory record of integrity and business ethics.

E. Have the necessary organization, experience, accounting and operational controls, and technical skills, or the ability to obtain them (including, as appropriate, such elements as production control procedures, property control systems, quality assurance measures, and safety programs applicable to materials to be produced or services to be performed by the prospective contractor and subcontractors).

F. Have the necessary production, construction, and technical equipment and facilities, or the ability to obtain them.

G. Be otherwise qualified and eligible to receive an award under applicable laws and regulations.

In making the determination of responsibility, the Government Contracting Officer shall consider relevant past performance information. A prospective contractor shall not be determined responsible or non-responsible solely on the basis of a lack of relevant performance history except when there are special standards set forth in the solicitation which applies to all bidders that must be met in order to receive the award. These special standards may be necessary when unusual expertise or specialized facilities are necessary in the performance of the contract;

therefore, in order to be determined to be responsible for that particular contract, the offeror must be able to meet those special standards. A prospective contractor that is or recently has been seriously deficient in contract performance shall be presumed to be non-responsible unless the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances were beyond the contractor's control or that the contractor has taken appropriate corrective action. Other responsibility considerations by the Contracting Officer will include past efforts by the contractor to apply sufficient tenacity and perseverance to perform acceptably, to meet quality requirements of contracts, and the contractor's past compliance with subcontracting plans (if required) under recent contracts.

If the contractor or subcontractor does not already have sufficient resources demonstrated in the completed Pre-Award Survey, acceptable evidence of "the ability to obtain" the required, adequate resources (all of the resources discussed in subparagraphs a, e, and f above) normally consists of a commitment or explicit arrangement that will be in existence at the time of contract award to rent, purchase or otherwise acquire the needed facilities, equipment, other resources, or personnel.

The Pre-Award Survey as a tool used by the Government in determining responsibility of the offeror is submitted as part of the Price/Cost proposal and is separate from the technical proposal's response to the technical evaluation criteria found later in this Section. Some of the information required from the offeror for completion of the Pre-Award Survey and the technical proposal may be duplicative but it is necessary that the information be provided in full in both places and that the Price/Cost proposal and the Technical proposal be separate documents. DO

NOT state, for example, in the technical proposal, "See Price/Cost proposal for past performance information.”
