The Past Performance Questionnaire is a mandatory form for contractors involved in government contract bids. Contractors must fill out their information and submit it to their client reference for evaluation based on the contractor's performance. Key components include details such as contract number, type, agency, and significant dates. The contractor must also outline the project's complexity and relevance to the current bid. The form includes a set of performance criteria rated by the client, categorized as Exceeds (E), Satisfactory (S), Unsatisfactory (U), or Not Applicable (N). Important performance areas evaluated include quality, schedule adherence, cost control, management effectiveness, regulatory compliance, and overall customer satisfaction. The client reference is tasked with assessing the contractor's ability to meet contractual obligations, manage resources efficiently, and ensure compliance with regulations. This questionnaire facilitates a structured review process that can impact future contract decisions, underscoring the government's emphasis on evaluating past performance in awarding new contracts.
