Attachment 5: Consent Letter

ATTACHMENT 5

SUBCONTRACTOR/TEAMING PARTNER CONSENT LETTER

Note: Past performance information concerning subcontractors and teaming partners cannot be disclosed to a private party without the subcontractor’s or teaming partner’s consent. Because a prime Contractor is a private party, the Government will need that consent before disclosing subcontractor/teaming partner past and present performance information to the prime Contractor during exchanges. In an effort to assist the Government’s Performance Confidence Assessment Group (PCAG) in assessing your past performance relevancy and confidence, we request that a consent letter (similar to the sample below) be completed by the major subcontractors/teaming partners identified in Contractor Team Organization (Attachment 1), in your proposal. The completed consent letters should be submitted as part of your Past Performance Volume.

Dear “Contracting Officer:”
We are participating as a (subcontractor/teaming partner) with (prime Contractor or name of entity providing proposal) in responding to the Defense Health Agency, Request for Proposal for a Nutrition Care Food Service contract.
We understand that the Government is placing increased emphasis on past performance in order to obtain best value in source selections. In order to facilitate the performance confidence assessment process we are signing this consent letter to allow you to discuss our past and present performance information with the prime Contractor during the source selection process.
