Firm must submit information for current relevant contracts and subcontracts including the name, address, and telephone numb er of references. (Relevancy is defined in the DOD guide to collection and use of past performance as: information that has a logical connection with the matter under consideration and applicable time span). Pertinent issues are ability to meet establishe d schedules, ability to accomplish work within budgetary limitations, and quality of the delivered product. Past performance on contracts with Government agencies and private industry regarding quality and timeliness of work will be reviewed. Past DOD expe rience data available to the Government through the A-E Contract Administration Support System (ACASS) and information available from other sources, will be utilized for prior performance evaluation. 3.

The Director of Defense Procurement has issued a final rule requiring that contractors must be registered in the Central Contractor Registration (CCR) before receiving a contract from any activity of the Department of Defense. The rule authorizes contracting officers to reject offers from contractors that have not registered. (The CCR web site may be accessed at htt p://www.ccr.gov). Small and small disadvantaged firms are encouraged to participate as prime contractors or as members of joint ventures with other small businesses. All interested firms are reminded that the successful firm will be expected to place subco ntracts to the maximum practical extent with small and small disadvantaged firms in accordance with the provisions of Public Law 95-507. If a large business firm is selected for award, the firm must comply with FAR 52.219-1, regarding the requirement for a subcontracting plan on that part of the work it intends to subcontract. Of those dollars the large business firm intends to subcontract, the Corps of Engineers target goals for subcontracting are 57.2% to small business concerns; 10.0% to small disadva ntaged business concerns; 10.0% to women-owned small business concerns; 3.0% for SBA HUBZone certified small business concerns; and 3.0% to service-disabled veteran-owned small business concerns. Large firms should keep these target goals in mind when con sidering qualifications of potential subcontractors and ensure that each proposed subcontractor's socio-economic status is clearly identified in the submission of qualifications. An approved small business subcontracting plan will be required prior to award to a large business firm. The NAICS code is 541330 with a small business size standard of $4,000,000.00 Response to this announcement should be in writing only; telephone calls and personal visits are discouraged.
