5.2.6  Ratings

Each proposal evaluated at this stage will be assigned a rating.  We recommend using the ratings below from MP5315.3, Table 3.  The performance confidence assessment is normally assessed at an overall factor level after evaluating aspects of the offeror's recent past performance, focusing on performance that is relevant to the technical factors and price.  Note that these ratings are subjective based on the performance information collected.  Do not use mathematical averaging to assign a performance confidence assessment rating.  

Substantial Confidence: Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has a high expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Satisfactory Confidence: Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has an expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.

Limited Confidence: Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has a low expectation that the offeror will successfully perform the required effort.  

No Confidence: Based on the offeror's performance record, the government has no expectation that the offeror will be able to successfully perform the required effort.

Unknown Confidence: No performance record is identifiable or the offeror's performance record is so limited that no confidence assessment rating can be reasonably assigned.

Document findings thoroughly, summarizing the information using a form similar to Attachment 6 "Evaluation Matrix" or Attachment 7 "Rating Team Worksheet," depending on the complexity of the performance assessment.
