C.9 DEFINITIONS

Acceptable Quality Level: The allowable leeway or variance from a standard before the government will reject the specific service. As long as the percent of defective performance does not exceed the AQL, the service will not be rejected by the government. The contractor, however, must re-perform the defective service when possible.

Biobased Products: See Sustainable Acquisitions Contracting Officer (CO): Individual with authority to bind the government with their signature on the contract.

Contracting Officer Representative (COR): Individual(s) designated to act on the behalf of the CO within the delegation given them in writing.

Period of performance (also Performance period or Contract time): All calendar days allowed for completion of contract work. Includes all days of the week including weekends and holidays.

Quality Assurance: Those actions taken by the government to check goods or services to determine that they meet the requirements of the Statement of Work (SOW).

Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP): An organized written document used for quality assurance surveillance. The document contains information about how the government will assess performance, checklists, and may contain decision tables.

Quality Control: Those actions taken by a contractor to control the production of goods or services so that they will meet the requirements of the Performance Work Statement. Refer to Inspection and Acceptance 52.246-4 or 52.246-12 and Contractors Quality Control Plan as described in Section E.

Quality Control Plan: Contractors plan for self-monitoring work prior to Government inspection and acceptance. See Section E.

Random Sampling: A method of looking at a few individual items in a lot to determine the quality of that lot against a standard.

(Acceptable) Service: A job performed to the standard and within the acceptable quality level. The contractor must do the specific job, and meet the standard, and meet the acceptable quality level before one can say that performance has been acceptable and that he/she should be paid.

Standard: An acknowledged measure of comparison.

Stewardship Contracting: An exchange of goods/products for services including construction.

Sustainable Acquisitions (FAR Part 23.4 – Use of recovered materials and biobased products)

a. Biobased Products: Managed by the U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA), the goal of the BioPreferred program is to increase the purchase and use of biobased products. The BioPreferred program was created by the 2002 Farm Bill and reauthorized and expanded as part of the Agricultural Act of 2014 (the 2014 Farm Bill). The program's purpose is to spur economic development, create new jobs and provide new markets for farm commodities.

The increased development, purchase, and use of biobased products reduce our nation's reliance on petroleum, increase the use of renewable agricultural resources, and contribute to reducing adverse environmental and health impacts. Information on biobased/bio-preferred products can be found at the BioPreferred Site . The Contractor shall comply with the clause at FAR 52.223-2, Affirmative Procurement of Biobased Products Under Service and Construction Contracts and the provision at FAR 52.223-1, Biobased Product Certification.

b. EPA-designated items: Products that are or can be made with recovered material. The Comprehensive Procurement Guideline (CPG) program is part of EPA's continuing effort to promote the use of materials recovered from solid waste. Buying recycled-content products ensures that the materials collected in recycling programs will be used again in the manufacture of new products. The contractor shall comply with the clause at FAR 52.223-17 Affirmative Procurement of EPA-designated Items in Service and Construction Contracts.
