The Past Performance Questionnaire is a tool used for evaluating contractors in government contracts. The contractor must fill out specific information, including firm and contact details, contract specifics, and project descriptions, before sending the form to a client reference for completion. The evaluation assesses contractor performance across key areas such as quality, schedule, cost control, management, regulatory compliance, and overall customer satisfaction. Ratings range from "Exceeds" to "Unsatisfactory," with definitions provided for clarity. The client reference inputs their evaluations, including ratings and comments, and must provide contact information and their signature upon completion. This form serves as a crucial element in the review and selection process for federal and local contracts, ensuring accountability and performance evaluation based on actual project outcomes.
