For the Past Performance Factor, we will evaluate both the relevancy of experience and performance quality of prior experience. We will, at a minimum, review CPARS information available but reserve the right to check any and all sources of past performance information. This review will result in an overall assessment of confidence in performance.

For the Technical Evaluation Factor, consider providing specifically tailored approaches for the solicited project.
