Guidance. Evaluation and Review of Contractor's performance shall be part of the normal contract
<br />administration process and Contractor's performance will be systematically recorded in the statewide Contract
<br />Management System. Areas of Evaluation and Review shall include, but shall not be limited to quality, cost and
<br />timeliness. Collection of information relevant to the performance of Contractor's obligations under this Contract
<br />shall be determined by the specific requirements of such obligations and shall include factors tailored to match
<br />the requirements of Contractor's obligations. Such performance information shall be entered into the statewide
<br />Contract Management System at intervals established herein and a final Evaluation, Review and Rating shall be
<br />rendered within 30 days of the end of the Contract term. Contractor shall be notified following each
<br />performance Evaluation and Review, and shall address or correct any identified problem in a timely manner and
<br />maintain work progress.
<br />Should the final performance Evaluation and Review determine that Contractor demonstrated a gross failure to
<br />meet the performance measures established hereunder, the Executive Director of the Colorado Department of
<br />Personnel and Administration (Executive Director), upon request by the CWCB, and showing of good cause,
<br />may debar Contractor and prohibit Contractor from bidding on future contracts. Contractor may contest the final
<br />Evaluation, Review and Rating by: (a) filing rebuttal statements, which may result in either removal or
<br />correction of the evaluation (CRS §24- 105 - 102(6)), or (b) under CRS §24 -105- 102(6), exercising the debarment
<br />protest and appeal rights provided in CRS § §24- 109 -106, 107, 201 or 202, which may result in the reversal of
<br />the debarment and reinstatement of Contractor, by the Executive Director, upon a showing of good cause.
