This clearance covers the information that offerors must submit to comply with the following Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) requirement: • Standard Form (SF) 330, Architect-Engineer Qualifications. As specified in FAR 36.702(b), an architect-engineer firm must provide information about its qualifications for a specific contract when the contract amount is expected to exceed the simplified acquisition threshold. Part I of the SF 330 may be used when the contract amount is expected to be at or below the simplified acquisition threshold, if the contracting officer determines that its use is appropriate. Part II of the SF 330 is used to obtain information from an architect-engineer firm about its general professional qualifications. The SF 330 accomplishes the following: • Expands essential information about qualifications and experience data including:  An organizational chart of all participating firms and key personnel.  For all key personnel, a description of their experience in 5 relevant projects.  A description of each example project performed by the project team (or some elements of the project team) and its relevance to the agency’s proposed contract.  A matrix of key personnel who participated in the example projects. This matrix graphically illustrates the degree to which the proposed key personnel have worked together before on similar projects. • Reflects current architect-engineer disciplines, experience types and technology. • Permits limited submission length thereby reducing costs for both the architect-engineer industry and the Government. Lengthy submissions do not necessarily lead to a better decision on the best-qualified firm. The proposed SF 330 indicates that agencies may limit the length of firm’s submissions, either certain sections or the entire package. The Government’s right to impose such limitations was established in case law (Coffman Specialties, Inc., B-284546. N-284546/2, 2000 U.S.Comp.Gen.LEXIS 58, May 10, 2000).
