PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY

8.1. General. The Performance Requirements Summary in this section will be used to measure performance of services for the purpose of determining the continuation of service under this contract and any applicable payment deductions. The rights of the Government and remedies described in this section are in addition to all other rights and remedies set forth in this solicitation. The Government reserves its rights under the "Inspection of Services" and "Termination for Default" clauses of this contract. The Contractor shall not be relieved of full performance of the services hereunder and may be terminated for default based upon inadequate performance of services even if a deduction was previously taken for inadequate performance. Failure to meet standards may result in Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR) to document performance. The COR will recommend when a remedy through the CONTRACTING OFFICER should be initiated to address noted deficiencies.

8.1.1. Individual Tasks and Other Services. Requirements not included in the PRS remain subject to separate quality assurance evaluations. The absence from the PRS of any contract requirement, however, shall not detract from its enforceability or limit the rights or remedies of the Government under any provision of this contract.

8.1.2 Explanation of the PRS. The PRS has been developed to cover required services rather than the individual performance of tasks. Each listed service will pass or fail based on the acceptability of the tasks which comprise that service.

8.2 PRS Table. The PRS included in this section will provide the following information:

8.2.1 Column Number 1. Column 1 lists the contract requirements by service outputs which breakdown the contract in areas considered necessary for acceptable contract performance. The Government will measure contract performance in each of these various areas to determine overall performance and contract payment. Each service on the PRS will evaluate IAW established AQLs. Also provided in this column is the reference para number (including all subsequent sub-para) of the contract that describes the required service.

8.2.2 Column Number 2. Column 2 lists the contract para (including all subsequent sub-para), which details the standards for each listed service.

8.2.3 Column Number 3. Column 3 lists the Allowable Quality Level (AQL) which determines the maximum allowable degree of deviation from perfect performance that may occur for each listed service before the Contractor will receive less than 100% of the maximum payment for the listed service. Definition of the lot size used as the basis for surveillance and for payment computation purposes is also included in this column.

8.2.4 Column Number 4. Column 4 lists the primary surveillance methods the Government will use to evaluate the Contractor's performance of each listed service.

8.3 Inspection Methods. The Government may use a variety of surveillance methods to evaluate the Contractor's performance. The Government may unilaterally change the type and frequency of inspections as it deems necessary. Both scheduled and unscheduled surveillance will be used to look at the total or parts of performance. Valid customer complaints will not be added to the defective samples found under random or planned sampling for the purposes of deductions in contract payment. The methods of surveillance that may be used are Random Sampling, Planned Sampling, Unscheduled Inspections, and Customer Comments. For the purpose of this contract, the word "sampling" is synonymous with the word "inspection".

8.3.1 Performance Evaluations. The Contractor shall have work complete and ready for inspection in accordance with all terms of the contract. The Government will perform monthly quality assurance inspections to measure overall performance and determine contract payment. Government inspections will be made according to the appropriate surveillance method(s), to compare Contractor's performance to contract requirements and standards. When the Contract Manager is not available during inspection to receive the results, acceptance or rejection of work will be made on the basis of the initial inspection.

8.3.2 Measuring Performance. The Government will use the PRS in this contract as the primary tool to measure contract performance. One defect constitutes failure of one inspection of one service listed on the PRS during an evaluation period.

8.3.3 Acceptable Performance. Contractor performance will be acceptable when all requirements have been met and the number of allowable defects has not been exceeding whether random or planned sampling techniques were used.

8.3.4 Unacceptable Performance. Services listed on the PRS will be unacceptable and rated defective when the number of recorded defects exceeds the allowable number of defects. Defects will result when performance does not meet contract provisions, or was not IAW contract requirements and standards, or was not completed by the specified time, or was not completed in its entirety. Once a defect has been identified it remains a defect, regardless of if it has been corrected.

8.4 Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR). When a PRS service is defective, the Government will issue the Contractor a CDR. The Contractor shall reply in writing by the suspense date explaining why performance was unacceptable and how recurrence of the problem will be prevented in the future. The Contracting Officer will evaluate the Contractor's explanation and determine if other remedies, e.g., partial payment, or contract termination is applicable.

8.4.1 Re-performance of Defective Work. Except as otherwise provided by this paragraph, the work required by the contract is of such a nature that defective or incomplete performance disclosed by Government inspection is not subject to correction by re-performance or late performance. The Contractor shall not be required or entitled to re-perform, perform late, or otherwise correct defective work for the purpose of avoiding a defect for the day of evaluation

8.4.2 Re-performance Requirements. At the sole election of the Government and upon notification to the Contractor, the Contractor may be required to re-perform or perform late any or all defective work. Where the Government elects, the Contractor shall be notified promptly after inspection that specified defective work will be re-performed or performed late and completed within the re-performance period specified by the Government. In such cases, the Government will re-inspect work designated for re-performance or late performance.

8.4.3 Conditions of Re-performance. Re-performed work shall comply with same requirements as initial work. The requirement for re-performing defective work will not alleviate the Contractor from responsibility to perform all other work IAW the terms of the contract. The Contractor's original inspection results will not be modified when work is re-performed IAW the contract. The Contractor may be held liable for any damages sustained by the Government, e.g., costs associated with re-inspection.
