Firms with multiple offices shall indicate which office/branch performed the A-E services. For projects performed as a subcontractor or a joint venture involving different partners, specifically indicate the value of the work performed as a subcontractor or by those firms proposed for this contract, and identify the specific roles and responsibilities performed as a subcontractor or by those firms on the project rather than the work performed on the project as a whole. If the project description does not clearly delineate the work performed by the entity/entities offering/teaming on this contract, the project could be eliminated from consideration. NOTE: If the firm is a joint venture, projects performed by the joint venture should be submitted; however, if there are no projects performed by the joint venture, projects must be submitted for each joint venture partner, not to exceed the ten (10) project limitation. Firms failing to provide projects from all joint venture partners will be considered to have not met the requirements of the criterion.

Instead, submit a relevant task order or stand-alone contract award that fits within the definition above. The Government will not evaluate information provided for an IDIQ contract. Examples of project work submitted that do not conform to this requirement will not be evaluated. All information for Criterion 2 should be submitted in the SF-330, Part I, Section F.
