2.3 CONTRACTOR RESPONSIBILITY, PRE-AWARD SURVEY

To determine a contractor's responsibility for purposes of contract award in accordance with FAR Part 9, the contractor is required to provide a statement regarding previous experience and past performance in performing comparable work, information related to the business organization, financial resources, and/or plant to be used in performing the work (see Attachment 2, Pre-award Survey).

The Government will request this information from the eligible contractor after receipt of offer if they have not had a contract with the San Francisco District within the last twelve months and the Government will set a due date for its submission.

1. The Pre-award Survey is attached to the solicitation for information purposes only and is not required as part of the Proposal package.

(a) If required to determine that a prospective contractor is responsible, the offeror must:

1) Demonstrate that they have adequate financial resources to perform the contract or the ability to obtain them.

2) Be able to comply with the required or proposed delivery or performance schedule, taking into consideration all existing commercial and governmental business commitments.

3) Have a satisfactory performance record. In making the determination of responsibility, the Government Contracting Officer shall consider relevant past performance information. A prospective contractor shall not be determined as responsible or not responsible solely based on a lack of relevant performance history except when there are special standards set forth in the solicitation, which applies, to all offerors that must be met in order to receive the award. These special standards may be necessary when unusual expertise or specialized facilities are necessary in the performance of the contract; therefore, in order to be determined as responsible for a particular contract, the offeror must be able to meet those special standards. A prospective contractor that is or recently has been seriously deficient in contract performance shall be presumed to be nonresponsive unless the Contracting Officer determines that the circumstances were beyond the contractor's control or that the contractor has taken appropriate corrective action.

Other responsibility considerations by the Contracting Officer will include past efforts by the contractor to apply sufficient tenacity and perseverance to perform acceptably, to meet quality requirements of contracts, and the contractor's past compliance with subcontracting plans (if required) under recent contracts.

4) Have a satisfactory record of integrity and business ethics.

5) Have the necessary organization, experience, accounting and operational controls, and technical skills, or the ability to obtain them (including, as appropriate, such elements as production control procedures, property control systems, quality assurance measures, and safety programs applicable to materials to be produced or services to be performed by the prospective contractor and
