7-3 EVALUATING OFFEROR PERFORMANCE CAPABILITY.
7-3.1 An offeror's performance capability may be determined by evaluating design, construction and
management personnel qualifications, relevant corporate experience, past performance information,
financial capability, and organizational structure proposed for the project. FAR 15.304 (reference 8-3)
specifically permits evaluating such relevant factors.
The management review should involve
Government representatives experienced in construction management and design.
Complete
documentation of strengths and weaknesses of each proposal for each factor and subfactor is extremely
important. A performance capability evaluation format is provided at Appendix A.
It is extremely
important to set up and follow a prescribed evaluation process to avoid possible potential conflicts later
and avoid time consuming protests.
7-3.2 Past Performance. As a part of the Phase 1 evaluation process the Government representatives
shall review the offeror reference questionnaires which have been provided to the Contract Specialist.
Each proposal must have at least three reference questionnaires received. Where less than three are
received, the offeror will receive a lesser rating for this factor. It is the offeror's responsibility to ensure
that his or her references return the required information.
If a particular offeror does not have past
performance information to provide, this offeror should so indicate in his/her proposal and shall be
provided a neutral rating. The lack of past performance information is not the same as the failure of an
identified reference to complete and provide the reference questionnaire required.
7-3.3 Recent Relevant Experience. The offeror shall provide a list of past projects on which they
involved within the last three years which the offeror feels are relevant to the project under consideration.
Design Districts may lengthen the amount of time permissible for inclusion of recent relevant experience
