- PGI 1.603 Selection, appointment, and termination of appointment.

- PGI 1.603-93(b) It is anticipated that in most cases contracting personnel who are not contracting officers will still receive their first level performance appraisal by someone in the contracting career field, even though they are not required to do so. DoDI 5000.66, paragraph 5.3.11 applies to all DAWIA career fields. DLAD 1.603.93(b) implements that requirement for only the contracting career field. The intent is to provide those in the contracting career field, who do not receive their performance appraisal from a DAWIA certified contracting professional, an opportunity to have their performance appraisal reviewed by a designated individual in the contracting career field, who has achieved DAWIA certification at a level not lower than the individual being reviewed. The purpose for making this opportunity available is two-fold. First, it provides an avenue for feedback on performance issues related to technical competence and for advice on professional development. Second, it provides a safeguard against compliance with the technical competency requirements of the job being compromised toward some other end (e.g., expediency). The coverage is not intended to provide a routine venue through which individuals can have their performance appraisal “second-guessed.” If the reviewing official finds evidence that the professional development or technical competence of the individual being evaluated are being compromised, the reviewer should bring the matter to the attention of the evaluating official, and if necessary elevate it through contracting channels to the Chief of the Contracting Office.
