If the purchasing agency starts completing these contractor performance forms for future RFPs, would contractor performance need to be part of the RFP evaluation criteria in order for the purchasing agency to take this information into consideration when making an award determination?

Yes and HRS section 103-303(e) already requires past performance, stating:

“(e) The request for proposals shall include as an evaluation factor, past performance on projects of similar scope for public agencies or private industry, and shall state the relative importance of price, past performance, and other evaluation factors.”
