Background:
Past performance information is relevant information, for future source selection purposes, regarding a contractor’s actions under previously awarded contracts or orders. It includes the contractor’s record of conforming to requirements and to standards of good workmanship; forecasting and controlling costs; adherence to schedules, including the administrative aspects of performance; reasonable and cooperative behavior and commitment to customer satisfaction; reporting into databases; integrity and business ethics; and business-like concern for the interest of the customer. [Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) 42.1501]
Government officials use multiple sources of information when making award decisions. Agencies are instructed to use the Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) to create and measure the quality and timely reporting of performance information.
FAR 42.1503(4)(d) deems all past performance data as Source Selection Sensitive; information is not releasable unless directed by the agency who submitted the data. Any Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request should be submitted to the agency who created the evaluation.
