Management approach should be covered in detail to include what knowledge, resources, and experience the offeror has in-house that will be applied to the tasking, and established quality assurance processes to ensure quality deliverables. Factor 2: Past Performance - The offeror shall provide any past performance experience that is directly related to the requirements of this project. It is desired that a minimum of two (2) directly related projects for the Federal government be cited. If no direct or similar experience is provided, this factor will receive a neutral rating. Past performance information will be used to assess the risk of the offeror to successfully perform the requirements of this solicitation. Provide the following information, if applicable, for each directly related experience: 1) description of the project and the tasks/subtasks involved; 2) when and where this work was performed; 3) customer point of contact (POC) information to verify success of the project; and lessons learned that will be applied to this task.

However, information concerning resources such as labor hours and category, materials and subcontracts must be included so that the government can evaluate the offeror’s understanding of the scope of the required work. The technical proposal must be divided into sections per the evaluation factors. The evaluation and award procedures in FAR 13.106 apply.
