           Subpart 2942.15_Contractor Performance Information

 

Sec. 2942.1502  Policy.



    DOL contracting officers are required to use or interface with the 

Past Performance Information Retrieval System (PPIRS), and specifically 

the National Institutes of Health's Contractor Performance System. The 

HCA is responsible for ensuring that a contractor performance evaluation 

system is generated to meet the requirements of FAR subpart 42.15, 

including compliance with subcontracting plans. Contracts, task orders, 

and delivery orders, exceeding the simplified acquisition threshold, 

should be formally evaluated in writing. Interim evaluations should be 

performed on contracts exceeding one year in duration. This will assist 

contractors with improving marginal performance and identifying any 

major deficiencies. It will also facilitate performance evaluations at 

contract completion, as well as determining whether to exercise contract 

options, if any.
