Common use of Relevancy Assessment Clause in Contracts

Relevancy Assessment. The Government will conduct a relevancy assessment of each project/contract submitted by the offeror to determine the work performed under those projects/contracts relates to the work described in the RFP’s Attachment 9 and its associated appendices. The Government is not obliged to seek out and consider information other than the information the offeror submits but may at its discretion consider information involving other projects/contracts. The Government will evaluate the relevancy of projects based on the evaluation scale in the table shown above. The terms “scope”, “magnitude” and “complexity” have broad meaning such that evaluators will consider any feature of a past project/contract which has a predicative effect on performance on the current contract. The purpose of assessing relevancy is to take into account the predictive value of past effort toward success on this contract. Therefore, work performed under a Government contract may be considered more relevant than work performed under a commercial contract. Work that is completed or substantially completed may be determined to be more relevant than work that is just starting. In addition, past performance as a prime contractor may be more relevant than the past effort performed as a subcontractor.
