Adjectival Rating Description. Purple Good Proposal indicates a thorough approach and understanding of the requirement and contains at least one strength, and risk of unsuccessful performance is low to moderate. Green Acceptable Proposal indicates an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and the risk of unsuccessful performance is no worse than moderate. Yellow Marginal Proposal has not demonstrated an adequate approach and understanding of the requirements, and/or risk of unsuccessful performance is high.

Unacceptable proposals are ineligible for award without discussions and a subsequent, acceptable rating. Confidence Rating table below. The Government will evaluate past performance to determine whether the offeror’s recent, relevant past performance creates an expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Acceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government has a reasonable expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort. Neutral* The offeror’s performance record is not available or is so sparse that no meaningful past performance rating can be reasonably assigned; therefore, the offeror has unknown past performance and the Government’s confidence is “neutral.” Unacceptable Based on the offeror’s performance record, the Government does not have a reasonable expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Adjectival Rating Description. Low Proposal may contain weakness(es) which have little potential to cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Normal contractor effort and normal Government monitori ng will likely be able to overcome any difficulties. Moderate Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which may potentially cause disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Special contractor emphasis and close Government mon itoring will likely be able to overcome difficulties. High Proposal contains a significant weakness or combination of weaknesses which is likely to cause significant disruption of schedule, increased cost or degradation of performance. Is unlikely to overcome any difficulties, even with special contractor emphasis and close Government monitoring. Unacceptable Proposal contains a material failure or a combination of significant weaknesses that increases the risk of unsuccessful performance to an unacceptable level. Past performance will be evaluated to assess the offeror’s probability of meeting the solicitation requirements. The past performance evaluation considers each offeror’s demonstrated recent and relevant record of performance in providing services that meet the contract’s requirements. One performance confidence assessment rating is assigned for each offeror after evaluating the offeror’s recent past performance, focusing on performance that is relevant to the contract requirements. Past Performance Information on Past Contracts: Information on past performance shall be obtained as follows and reviewed to determine the quality and usefulness as it applies to performance confidence assessment: - From the offeror, as solicited; - From questionnaires tailored to the circumstances of this acquisition; and/or - From any other sources available to the Government, including, but not limited to: - Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS); - Federal Awardee Performance and Integrity Information System (FAPIIS); - Electronic Subcontract Reporting System (eSRS); - Other databases; - Interviews with Program Managers, Contracting Officers, and Xxx Xxxxxxxxxxx Officials; and/or - Defense Contract Management Agency (DCMA)
