Quoters that fail to adhere to the submittal requirements will be determined non-responsive and will be considered ineligible for award. To be eligible to receive an award, the quote submitted in response to the combined synopsis/solicitation shall consist of the contents required in the sub-paragraphs described below:

a. Past Performance: The past performance evaluation results in an assessment of the offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirement. The past performance evaluation considers each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance of gate attendant services that meets the contract requirements. Recent or relevant work is defined as similar work in size and scope within the past four (4) years.

NAVFAC/USACE Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ): The quoter is required to submit one (1) PPQ with an overall rating of satisfactory or higher to be considered eligible for award. Additional PPQs submitted for assessment will be discarded and not considered for evaluation. The Contracting Officer may use additional data obtained from any available sources such as the Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS) and personal knowledge to assess the contractor’s likelihood of success in performing the solicitation’s requirements as indicated by those offerors’ record of past performance.

If for any reason, the contractor does NOT have recent or relevant past performance, the quoter is still required to submit a PPQ with a brief narrative explaining “No Recent or Relevant Past Performance”. In the case of a quoter without a record of recent or relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available or so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on past performance.

Therefore, the quoter shall be determined to have unknown or (“neutral”) past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, a neutral rating shall be considered “acceptable”.

Table 2. Past Performance Evaluation Ratings

A contractor’s past performance rating may be used at the Contracting Officer’s discretion to make an overall determination of the level of confidence the government has in the contractor’s capability to perform the service. The Contracting Officer may determine that a “Substantial Confidence” or “Satisfactory Confidence” past performance rating is worth more than a “Neutral Confidence” past performance rating as stated in the evaluation

Adjectival Rating Description Substantial Confidence Based on the offeror's recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence Based on the offeror's recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort

Neutral Confidence No recent/relevant performance record is available or the offeror' s performance record is so sparse that no meaningful confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

The offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably on the factor of past performance.

Limited Confidence Based on the offeror' s recent/relevant performance record, the Government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

No Confidence Based on. the offeror's recent/relevant performance record, the Government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.
