The Past Performance Questionnaire is a federal document designed for contractors to evaluate the performance of services rendered in a specific contract, in this case for non-personal janitorial services in Muskegon, MI. Contractors complete initial sections to provide their information, contract details, and project descriptions before passing the document to client references for their assessment. The client reference evaluates contractor performance using a rating system that includes categories like quality, schedule adherence, cost control, management, and regulatory compliance, with options for Exceeds (E), Satisfactory (S), Unsatisfactory (U), or Not Applicable (N) ratings. Additionally, references are asked to provide comments and an overall customer satisfaction rating. The document underscores the government’s right to verify the information provided, making it a critical tool in assessing past contractor performance for future government procurement decisions. This process aims to ensure accountability and encourage high standards within federal contracting practices, contributing to the successful execution of government initiatives.
The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) has issued a request for quotation (RFQ) for non-personal janitorial services at the Great Lakes Environmental Research Laboratory (GLERL) Lake Michigan Field Station in Muskegon, Michigan. This solicitation, structured as a total Small Business Set-Aside, requires the contractor to provide all necessary labor, equipment, and eco-friendly cleaning products for a contract period from date of award until May 31, 2026.
