The questionnaire seeks ratings and comments from clients or project stakeholders to help evaluate the contractor's performance. This information is critical in determining the contractor's eligibility for future government contracts. In essence, this form is a key tool for gathering past performance data to assess the competency and reliability of contractors seeking to work with the government.
