The FSS Past Performance Questionnaire is a structured feedback tool designed for evaluating firms or agencies involved in federal contracts. It captures critical project details, including the name of the firm, project name, performance period, contract type, award dates, and monetary values. The questionnaire requires the assessment of various performance categories such as product quality, schedule adherence, cost control, business relations, management of personnel, reliability, customer support, and overall performance. Each category is rated from unsatisfactory to exceptional. The document emphasizes the importance of all information for determining past performance, thus assisting in future federal procurement and contract decision-making processes. Additionally, it allows for additional comments and the identification of assessing officials to ensure clarity and accountability in the evaluation process. This questionnaire serves as a vital component in the context of government RFPs, grants, and contract evaluations to enhance the quality and reliability of government services.
