Ratings are based on the risk to the Government that the Offeror will successfully perform that evaluated factor.

No more than five projects should be listed for each resume, and each project listed must have been completed within five (5) years of publication of this announcement.

Clearly identify the Project Type and the Firm's role on the project, for example, Full Design, Design Build RFP Developer, or Contractor's Designer of Record. In Block 24, "cost" is the total value of the project, not simply the value of the work performed by the Offeror and/or any proposed subcontractor. To demonstrate quality of past performance, for each project the Firm must provide a Contractor Performance Assessment Report System (CPARS). Quality of past performance information for key projects may be placed in Part II. The Government reserves the right to review any official performance evaluation system of records to inform its source selection decision.

The narrative should describe the corporate approach, driving criteria or potential constraints, and examples of successful performance. The narrative shall specifically discuss knowledge of, and experience with, work management planning to include quality management, subcontractor management, prior experience of the prime firm and any significant consultant, version control management, proactive internal and external communication protocols, and independent submittal review processes in the context of providing services under multiple task orders.
