Firms are requested to retrieve their CPARS past performance information directly from CPARS available at:

https://www.cpars.gov/. CPARS is an electronic repository of performance information collected by all the major federal performance reporting systems. Logging onto CPARS will require the following:

All Department of Defense (DoD) employees (military and civilian), including DoD Contractors that are working on site (military/government facilities) or contractors working offsite using Government Furnished Equipment (GFE) are required to use certificates from DoD Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) to access CPARS. If the contractor doesn't work on site or with GFE they are encouraged to obtain and use a certificate from an External Certificate Authority (ECA). For DoD users, the use of PKI Login is Mandatory. Federal and Contractor users can use the PKI login category if they have PKI.

External Certificate Authority External Certificate Authorities (ECAs) and Interim External Certificate Authorities (IECAs) provide digital certificates to the DoD's private industry partners, contractors using their own equipment or working in non-government facilities, allied partners, and other agencies.

Additional information about the PKI certificate is at https://www.cpars.gov web page.

You will also need your DUNS number and Marketing Partner Identification Number (MPIN) to log onto CPARS.

The MPIN number was selected by whoever registered your firm in the System for Award Management (SAM) Registry at https://www.sam.gov/SAM. If you do not know your MPIN number, you will need to contact the SAM help desk by emailing them from the email link on the https://www.sam.gov/ SAM/ web page. Please be aware that they will only release the MPIN number to the person who originally registered your firm.

There are two other ways to obtain a copy of CPARS evaluations as follows: (1) Contact your government point of contact for the project you mentioned, and ask them if they can send you a copy, or (2) Apply for “Contractor/Senior Contractor Representative” access at https://www.cpars.gov. This type of access is issued to only one person within the firm, typically a member of senior management. In addition to access to your completed CPARS performance evaluations, you will also be able to view status of evaluations which have not yet been completed. Following receipt of your application request, you will be emailed a logon and access instructions.
