The remaining submitted project example(s) may demonstrate performance by the Offeror acting as a Subcontractor or performed as a Key Subcontractor, or member of a JV.
All submitted projects shall have a completion date on or before the issue date of the solicitation for this RFP. All submitted projects shall have been completed within six (6) years of the issue date of this RFP.
Use Attachment 1, Offeror or Key Subcontractor Experience Form. Use one form for each project. Only those projects for which the Offeror was the Prime Contractor, part of a Joint Venture (JV), or projects for which the Offeror performed as a Key Subcontractor should be submitted. Offeror should describe each project with enough detail to ensure that the Government can meaningfully assess whether the project(s) submitted were recent and relevant to this project. If more than four (4) projects are submitted, only the first four will be evaluated, in the order they are presented in the proposal.
Note: If the Offeror is submitting any projects as a partner of a Joint Venture (JV), the DUNS and CAGE Code for each firm representing the JV must be included in the proposal. (See Attachment 1)
5.3 Evaluation Method for Factor A:
This factor will be evaluated to determine whether it meets the requirements of paragraph 5.2 above. If any of the required information is not provided in the Offeror’s proposal, the Offeror will be evaluated as “Unacceptable.” The Government reserves the right to verify the experience record of cited projects or other recent projects by reviewing
W912DW20R0001 00 22 00 – 4 R0001
the Past Performance Information Retrieval system (PPIRS) which includes the CCASS/ACASS ratings, other DoD or Government appraisal systems. The Government may check any or all cited references to verify supplied information.
The Government’s evaluation rating for Factor A of your proposal will be in accordance with Table 3 below (Offeror does not need to submit Table 3 with their proposal). Ensure all submitted projects meet the required completion date listed above.

7.0 FACTOR C (Volume 1, Tab C) – Past Performance:
7.1 Submission Requirements for Factor C:
The past performance evaluation is an assessment of the Offeror’s probability of meeting the minimum RFP requirements. This assessment is based on the Offeror’s record of relevant and recent past performance information that pertains to the scope of work as outlined in the RFP requirements
Each Offeror’s past performance will be initially evaluated using the projects submitted for Factor A. The past performance will be evaluated to determine how well the Offeror performed on the prior contracts.
At a minimum, the Government will review past performance information from the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) and Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), when available.
W912DW20R0001 00 22 00 – 6 R0001
NOTE:
If a CPARS rating is not available for ALL projects submitted under Factor A, Relevant experience of the Offerors, the Offeror must submit a Past Performance Questionnaire (PPQ) for those project(s). (See Attachment 3 at the back of this section).
Additionally, if the proposal is from a Joint Venture or Partnership, and the Joint Venture or Partnership has no CPARS ratings, all partners (other than the member represented by the project example(s) submitted in Factor A) to the Joint Venture or Partnership must submit a project example which has a CPARS rating, or submit a PPQ for that project. The selected project example must meet the submission requirements of the Magnitude/Cost, completed within six years of the issue date of the RFP and must demonstrate one other characteristics as defined in paragraph 5.1.
An Offeror shall not submit a PPQ when a completed CPARS evaluation is available. If both are submitted, only the CPARS will be evaluated. Completed PPQs should be submitted with your proposal ONLY if a CPARS evaluation is not available. If the Offeror is unable to obtain a completed PPQ from a client for a project(s) before proposal closing date, the Offeror should complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ (Attachment 3), which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s).
If the client requests, PPQs may be submitted directly to the Government's point of contacts, John Scola, via email at John.P.Scola@usace.army.mil and Susan F. Newby at Susan.F.Newby@usace.army.mil prior to the proposal closing date. The Offeror shall instruct the clients to refer to the RFP number in the subject line. The PPQs are Source Selection materials. All successfully submitted PPQs will receive an e-mail confirmation upon receipt. If the Offeror does not receive the confirmation, it is their responsibility to follow up to ensure the government has received the information before the due date of your proposal.
While the Government may elect to consider data from other sources, the burden of providing detailed, current, accurate and complete past performance information rests with the Offeror. Offeror may provide explanation on problems encountered on past projects and the corrective actions taken by the Offeror.
7.2 Evaluation Method for Factor C:
The Government’s evaluation rating for Factor C of your proposal will be in accordance with Table 5 below:
Note: In the case of an Offeror without a record of past performance or for whom information on past performance is not available, the Offeror’s past performance may not be evaluated as favorable or unfavorable. Therefore, the Offeror shall be determined to have unknown past performance. In the context of acceptability/unacceptability, “unknown” shall be considered “acceptable.”

ADJECTIVE RATINGS AND DEFINITIONS TO BE USED TO BEST REFLECT YOUR EVALUATION OF 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 some to the Government’s/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 minimum contractual requirements. 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 does not meet some contractual requirements. 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 nor negative.
