ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT

YOUR EVALUATIONOF THE CONTRACTOR’S PERFORMANCE

RATING DEFINITION NOTE

(E) Exceptional Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor was highly effective.

An Exceptional rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed multiple significant events that were of benefit to the Government/Owner. A singular benefit, however, could be of such magnitude that it alone constitutes an Exceptional rating. Also, there should have been NO significant weaknesses identified.

(VG) Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

A Very Good rating is appropriate when the Contractor successfully performed a significant event that was a benefit to the Government/Owner. There should have been no significant weaknesses identified.

(S) Satisfactory Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor appear or were satisfactory.

A Satisfactory rating is appropriate when there were only minor problems, or major problems that the contractor recovered from without impact to the contract. There should have been NO significant weaknesses identified. Per DOD policy, a fundamental principle of assigning ratings is that contractors will not be assessed a rating lower than Satisfactory solely for not performing beyond the requirements of the contract.

(M) Marginal Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the Government/Owner’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor’s proposed actions appear only marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

A Marginal is appropriate when a significant event occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming which impacted the Government/Owner.

(U) Unsatisfactory Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor’s corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

An Unsatisfactory rating is appropriate when multiple significant events occurred that the contractor had trouble overcoming and which impacted the Government/Owner. A singular problem, however, could be of such serious magnitude that it alone constitutes an unsatisfactory rating.

(N) Not Applicable No information or did not apply to your contract

Rating will be neither positive or negative.

(a) The Government will award a contract resulting from this solicitation to the responsible offeror whose offer conforming to the solicitation that provides the best benefit to the Government, price and other factors considered.

Offers will be evaluated by performing a comparative evaluation in accordance with FAR 13.106-2(b)(3) to determine which response represents the “best” as a whole. Comparative Evaluations is the act of comparing two or more offers or proposal in response to the RFQ.

Proposals will be evaluated by performing a direct comparison of one offer with another in a uniform manner to determine which offer provides the government the best overall value.

The government reserves the right to consider a response that offers more than the minimum and select that response if it provides a benefit to the government. The government has the discretion to accept other than the lowest priced offeror that provides additional benefits. The government also has the discretion to make an award based on whether the lowest priced of the quotations/offers having the highest past performance rating possible represents the best benefit to the government

The following factors shall be used to evaluate offers:

Factor 1: Price

Prices will be evaluated for fairness and reasonableness through a price analysis that compares the offered prices against each other and the independent government estimate. Award shall not be made to an Offeror’s proposal for goods or services that is found to be unbalanced and/or unreasonably low or high.

Factor 2: Past Performance

Past Performance Questionnaire forms provided in the solicitation shall be completed and submitted as specified in the Instructions to Offerors.

Recency, as it pertains to past performance information, is a measure of the time that has elapsed since past performance reference occurred.

Recency for this acquisition is defined as relevant work performed within the last Six (6) years. Relevancy, as it pertains to past performance information, is a measure of the extent of similarity between the service effort, complexity, dollar value, contract type, and other comparable attributes. Attributes for relevant work can be located in section 1.2 “Scope” of the Performance Work Statement, and Attachment 3 “Maps”. Offerors must provide a description of how contract references are relevant to this acquisition. In the case of an offeror without a record of relevant past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the offeror may not be evaluated favorably or unfavorably (neutral rating) on past performance, however the Offeror must still provide one PPQ with administrative data. In the case of no relevant past performance or experience, no experience or neutral rating will not exclude Offerors from award. Any completed CPARS evaluations existing on relevant and recent work performed will be evaluated over PPQ submissions for the same work.

The offeror must submit no more than five (5) recent and relevant PPQ forms.

The Government reserves the right to evaluate past performance based on such information as the contracting officer’s knowledge and previous experience with the item or service being purchased, customer surveys, or other reasonable basis, without the existence of a formal database

The narrative shall address how the Offeror will perform, develop, and implement the work plan. It shall not exceed two pages.
