The Naval Sea Logistics Center Portsmouth provides supplier performance and material quality support/services across a customer base that includes the Department of the Navy (DON), Joint Services, Department of Defense (DoD) as well as Federal and Civil Agencies.

Office personnel provide a broad range of analytical, technical, and project management expertise in evaluating material quality assurance and/or supplier performance programs to include management of automated information systems in support of these efforts. The office is proactive in collecting, compiling, and providing data for both the acquisition and technical communities to:

  • facilitate and enhance assessment of supplier performance and material quality;
  • apply this information in the product and services acquisition process and contract award decisions; and
  • provide senior officials with relevant decision information on supplier performance to prompt policy and operational changes, revise technical requirements, and re-engineer business processes.

Contractor Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS) is the single Federal Government wide information system for processing and collecting contractor performance information, as identified by the Administrator of the Office of Federal Procurement Policy. The Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requires that contractor performance information be collected (FAR Part 42.15) and used in source selection evaluations (FAR Part 15). Source selection officials rely on clear and timely evaluations of contractor performance to make informed business decisions when awarding government contracts and orders. This information is critical to ensuring that the Federal Government only does business with companies that provide quality products and services in support of the agency’s missions.

Past Performance Information Retrieval System - Report Card (PPIRS-RC) serves as sole retrieval tool for contractor performance assessments. The primary purpose of the CPARS is to ensure that current, complete and accurate information on contractor performance is available for use in procurement source selections. This is accomplished through the PPIRS-RC. Completed performance evaluations are used as a resource in awarding best value contracts and orders to contractors that consistently provide quality, and on-time products and services that conform to contractual requirements. Information collected from contracting officers in PPIRS-RC is used by agency source selection officials and contracting officers from across the government in making award decisions. It is imperative for the CPAR to include detailed, quality written information because each CPAR submitted to PPIRS-RC is used to effectively communicate contractor strengths and weaknesses to source selection officials.
