PAST PERFORMANCE, Volume 3, shall include: The offeror shall submit information for a total of up to three years (no more than 5) of recent contract past performance references that were performed by the offeror as the prime contractor, which the offeror considers to have relevance. These may include foreign, federal, state, local and private industry contracts. While the Government may elect to consider data obtained from internal and external sources other than the quote, the burden of providing thorough and complete past performance information remains with the offeror. It is the offeror's responsibility to submit detailed and complete information so the Government may evaluate its Past Performance. The Government does not assume the duty to search for data to cure problems it finds in quotes. The below instructions are provided to advise offerors as to the information required by the Government to assess the contractor's Recent and Relevant past performance. Since this information constitutes a basis of the Government's review, it is imperative that the offeror present its past performance in a clear and complete manner. Failure to provide the information requested below may result in an assessment that the offeror does not possess a record of Recent and Relevant past performance. Recent contracts are those performed within three years of the date of issuance of this solicitation. Relevant contracts are those comparable in scope and magnitude of effort and complexity to the PWS requirement(s).

Provide a copy of the complete performance work statement (PWS) or statement of work (SOW) for each of the submitted contracts. If the proposed Contract was issued under or in connection with a related written instrument (e.g. IDIQ, BOA, BPA, FSS) and the details of the distinct effort actually performed needed to establish relevancy on the proposed contract are further defined within the terms and conditions (e.g. statement of work) of that related written instrument, provide that information and any other information necessary to establish this instrument's relationship to the proposed contract. (These documents can be submitted as stand-alone attachments with the quote). The offeror may also be evaluated based on other internal Government or private source information. The Government may utilize the Contract Performance and Rating System (CPARS) to search for recent and relevant offeror performance and ratings. The Government will conduct an in-depth evaluation of all recent performance information to determine how closely the products provided/services performed under those contracts relate to the management and technical requirement(s). Consideration will be given to similar service, similar complexity of the effort, breadth and depth of skills, similar contract scope and type, and schedule. In addition, consideration will be given to any quality awards or certifications that indicate the offeror has a high-quality process for developing and producing the products or services required by this acquisition.

PRICE, Volume 4, shall include: Price Quote Format.

Text or spreadsheets used as supporting rationale within a BOE may not be included as a picture. Under no circumstances is price information and documentation to be included elsewhere in the quote.

ORGANIZATIONAL CONFLICT OF INTEREST The provisions of FAR 9.5, OCI, apply to any award under this solicitation. Potential offerors should review their current and planned participation in any other Government contracts, subcontracts, consulting, or teaming arrangements where they may be in a position of actual or perceived bias or unfair competitive advantage. A common example with the potential for OCI is where an entity performs work both as a system contractor/subcontractor and as a Government support contractor for Government offices involved in supporting program efforts or related programs. All offerors shall make a preliminary disclosure to the PCO, at the time of its quote, of any Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) issues it has identified or provide an affirmative statement that the offeror does not have an Organizational Conflict of Interest (OCI) as it applies to this solicitation. An offeror failing to submit an OCI plan that it is later determined should have been submitted, could cause the quote to be rejected and no longer be considered for award. Offerors shall include in its plan where its employees are located and the total of employees in the location(s). Offerors should disclose any potential OCI situations to the PCO as soon as identified including prior to quote submission. The disclosure should include the facts and an analysis of the actual or perceived conflict and a recommended approach(s) to neutralize or mitigate the potential conflict. The preferred approach to potential conflicts is to negate/obviate the conflict. Mitigation is considered only if it is not practical to negate/obviate the conflict. The PCO will promptly respond to resolve any potential conflicts. Award. A written notice of award or acceptance of an offer, mailed or otherwise furnished to the successful offeror within the time for acceptance specified in the offer, shall result in a binding contract without further action by either party. Before the offer�s specified expiration time, the Government may accept an offer (or part of an offer), whether or not there are negotiations after its receipt, unless a written notice of withdrawal is received before award.
