REQUIREMENTS), FAR 52.211-10 COMMENCEMENT, PROSECUTION, AND COMPLETION OF
WORK (APR 1984).
1.2 CONTRACTOR PERFORMANCE EVALUATIONS
Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Subpart 36.201(Evaluation of Contractor Performance) requires evaluation of the construction contractor's performance throughout the contract period of performance. The United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) follows the procedures outlined in Engineering and Construction Bulletin 2014-13 to fulfill this FAR requirement. For construction contracts valued at or above $650,000.00, including all modifications, the USACE will evaluate Contractor's performance using the web-based Contractors Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). After the USACE drafts an evaluation (interim or final), the Contractor will have the opportunity to access, review, comment and either concur or non-concur with the evaluation in the CPARS system for a period of 60 days. Access to the CPARS system requires either specific software called PKI certification (recommended method) or a username and password. The PKI certification is a Department of Defense recommendation and to provide security in electronic transactions. The certification software could cost approximately $110 - $125 per certificate per year and may be purchased from an External Certificate Authorities (ECA) vendor.
Current information about the PKI certification process and contacting vendors can be found on the web site: https://www.cpars.gov.
