3.2  Other PCAG Activities Prior to DRFP/RFP Release.

a.  Early industry involvement is essential to resolve concerns on past performance evaluation, relevancy and recency definitions and questionnaires before release of the RFP.  The team communications with potential offerors could consist of one-on-one meetings (meet with all potential offerors), pre-solicitation conferences, requests for information, and draft request for proposals.

b.  Develop timelines for PCAG activities in the source selection.

c.  Establish an interchange process within the PCAG team and between the SSET and PCAG.

d.  Plan on aggressively pursuing sources of information on potential offerors such as CPARS, DCMA, Defense Logistics Agency (DLA), inspection reports, Past Performance Information and Retrieval System (PPIRS), Federal Procurement Data System Next Generation (FPDS-NG, DD350), and Dun and Bradstreet.
