Offeror shall complete and submit with the proposal the first page of the PPQ, which will provide contract and client information for the respective project(s). Offerors shall follow-up with clients/references to ensure timely submittal of questionnaires. If the client requests, questionnaires may be submitted directly to CEHNC-

MDMS@usace.army.mil prior to the solicitation closing date. The solicitation number and Offeror’s name shall be clearly indicated on the PPQ. Offerors shall not submit PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs or incorporate by reference into their proposal PPQs previously submitted for other RFPs. However, this does not preclude the

Government from utilizing previously submitted PPQ information in the past performance evaluation.

In addition to the above, the Government may review any other sources of information for evaluating past performance. Other sources may include, but are not limited to, past performance information retrieved through the mailto:CEHNC-MDMS@usace.army.mil mailto:CEHNC-MDMS@usace.army.mil
