Common use of Performance-Based Contracting Clause in Contracts

Performance-Based Contracting. The contractor shall make progress toward, meet, or exceed the statewide mean 90 day retention rates as determined by DSHS. The 90 -day retention performance measure will be determined by using a rolling 6-month average And be monitored on a monthly basis through the DASA-TA or a report generated by DSHS. At the start of the contract, baseline outcomes for completion will be set by DSHS according To past county performance; data for this measure will be based on the calendar year 2010 (12 months). For purposes of this contract the word “progress” means achieving a minimum improvement of 1.5% in a fiscal quarter. 1. Effective July 1, 2011, the baseline to be considered in “good standing” is 65% (Youth) for 90 day retention. a. If, during any calendar quarter, the contractor falls below the statewide mean, the contractor shall follow the process for correction in Section b. b. Effective July 1, 2011, if the Contractor’s baseline for 90-day retention performance is lower than the statewide mean, the Contractor shall increase the 90-day retention performance rate by 10% of their individual baseline or reach the statewide mean, by the end of the fiscal contract year. For example, if the contractor has a baseline completion rate of 46%, the expectation would be an increase of 4.6%. If, during any monitored calendar quarter, the Contractor does not demonstrate progress towards the expected 90 day-retention goal, the Contractor shall follow the process for correction in Section c c.
