What is the SF330?
The SF330 (Architect-Engineer Qualifications) is the standard form the federal government uses to evaluate A-E firms for design and engineering contracts under the Brooks Act (FAR Part 36.6). Instead of competing on price, firms are shortlisted on professional qualifications, specialized experience, and past performance, all captured on the SF330.
Part I: contract-specific qualifications
Part I is written for one solicitation and covers Sections A through H: the contract and firm details, the proposed team and its organizational chart, resumes of key personnel, example projects, and a matrix tying the two together.
- Sections A to D: the solicitation, your firm, and the proposed team structure.
- Section E: resumes of key personnel, one per person, scoped to their role on this contract.
- Section F: example projects that demonstrate the specialized experience the agency asked for.
- Section G: the matrix mapping each key person to the example projects they worked on.
- Section H: additional information, where the agency's evaluation criteria are addressed directly.
SF330 resumes (Section E)
Section E is where most of the rewriting happens, and where most of the scoring is lost. Each resume carries the person's role on this contract, years of experience total and with the firm, education, registrations, and projects that line up with Section F. The same engineer needs a different Section E for a bridge pursuit than for a vertical construction pursuit, which is why firms end up maintaining dozens of near-duplicate resumes by hand.
Part II: general qualifications
Part II is the reusable half: a statement of your firm's overall qualifications, disciplines, and size. It is submitted for the firm and for each branch office involved in the contract, which is where copies drift apart. Keep one current Part II and file it everywhere rather than editing last year's.
Is there an SF330 in Word or Excel?
No official one. GSA publishes the SF330 as a fillable PDF and nothing else, so a Word or Excel SF330 is always somebody's recreation. Those copies go stale, drop revisions, and can be rejected. Draft the narrative content for Sections E, F and H wherever you like, then place it in the official form.
How GovHub speeds up the SF330
- Maintain resumes, project profiles, and firm data once in a central library.
- GovHub populates Part II and drafts Part I Sections E, F, and G for the specific pursuit.
- Match key personnel and example projects to the solicitation's evaluation criteria.
- Export a consistent, correctly formatted SF330, no version drift between sections.
