Abstract
In accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act of 1995, and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) regulations, DoD, GSA, and NASA invite the public to comment on an extension concerning past performance information. DoD, GSA, and NASA invite comments on: whether the proposed collection of information is necessary for the proper performance of the functions of Federal Government acquisitions, including whether the information will have practical utility; the accuracy of the estimate of the burden of the proposed information collection; ways to enhance the quality, utility, and clarity of the information to be collected; and ways to minimize the burden of the information collection on respondents, including the use of automated collection techniques or other forms of information technology. OMB has approved this information collection for use through July 31, 2024. DoD, GSA, and NASA propose that OMB extend its approval for use for three additional years beyond the current expiration date.

SUPPLEMENTARY INFORMATION:

B. Need and Uses
This clearance covers the information that offerors and contractors
must submit to comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation
(FAR) requirements:
Preaward. For responses during source selection.
<bullet> FAR 15.305(a)(2)(ii). This section requires solicitations
to describe the approach for evaluating past performance, including
evaluating offerors with no relevant performance history, and providing
offerors an opportunity to identify past or current contracts
(including Federal, State, and local government and private) for
efforts similar to the Government requirement. Solicitations also must
authorize offerors to provide information on problems encountered on
their identified contracts and the offeror corrective actions. Per FAR
15.304(c)(3), past performance must be evaluated in all source
selections for negotiated competitive acquisitions expected to exceed
the simplified acquisition threshold (SAT) unless the contracting
officer documents the reason past performance is not an appropriate
evaluation factor for the acquisition.
<bullet> FAR 52.212-1, Instructions to Offerors--Commercial
Products and Commercial Services. This provision requires offerors, per
paragraph (b)(10), to submit past performance information, when
included as an evaluation factor, to include recent and relevant
contracts for the same or similar items and other references (including
contract numbers, points of contact with telephone numbers and other
relevant information).
Postaward. For responses in the Contractor Performance Assessment
Reporting System (CPARS).
<bullet> FAR 42.1503(d). Requires contractors be afforded up to 14
calendar days from the notification date that a past performance
evaluation has been entered into CPARS to submit comments, rebutting
statements, or additional information. Past performance information is
relevant information regarding a contractor's actions under previously
awarded contracts or orders, for future source selection purposes.
Source selection officials may obtain past performance information from
a variety of sources.
Contracting officers use the information to support future source
selection decisions.
C. Annual Burden
Respondents: 60,669.
Total Annual Responses: 74,641.
Total Burden Hours: 149,283.
