Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP)

2-218 FA BN Annual Training, UMD TY 2015

1. Purpose

This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) is a government-developed document used to determine if the contractor's performance meets the performance standards contained in the contract. The QASP establishes procedures on how this assessment/inspection process will be conducted. It provides the detailed process for a continuous oversight process:

What will be monitored

How monitoring will take place

Who will be conduct the monitoring

How monitoring efforts and results will be documented

The contractor is responsible for implementing and delivering performance that meets contract standards using its Quality Control Plan. The QASP provides the structure for the government's surveillance of the contractor's performance to assure that it meets contract standards. It is the government's responsibility to be objective, fair and consistent in evaluating contractor performance.

The QASP is not part of the contract nor is it intended to duplicate the contractor's quality control plan. This QASP is a living document. Flexibility in the QASP is required to allow for an increase or decrease in the level of surveillance necessary based on contractor performance.

The government may provide a copy of the QASP to the contractor to facilitate open communication. In addition, the QASP should recognize that unforeseen or uncontrollable circumstances might occur that are outside the control of the contractor.

Bottom line, the QASP should ensure early identification and resolution of performance issues to minimize impact on mission performance.

4 Authority

Authority for issuance of this QASP is provided under Part 46 of the Federal Acquisition

Regulation, Inspection of Services clauses, which provides for inspection, acceptance and documentation of the service called for in the contract or order. This acceptance is to be executed by the contracting officer or a duly authorized representative.

5 Roles and Responsibilities

The following personnel shall oversee and coordinate surveillance activities.

5.1 Contracting Office {KO)

The KO is the only person authorized to establish, amend or terminate a contract on the

Government's behalf. The KO shall ensure performance of all necessary actions for effective contracting, ensure compliance with the contract terms, and shall safeguard the interests of the

United States in the contractual relationship. The KO shall also ensure that the contractor receives impartial, fair, and equitable treatment under this contract. Determine and document the final assessment of the contractor's performance in the governments past performance tracking system.

Assigned KO: TBD

Organization or Agency: USPFO for Oregon

Telephone:

Email:

5.2 Contracting Officer's Representative {COR)

The COR is responsible for providing continuous technical oversight of the contractor's performance. The COR uses the QASP to conduct the oversight surveillance process. The COR shall keep a Quality Assurance file that accurately documents the contractor's actual performance.

The purpose is to ensure that the contractor meets the performance standards contained in the contract and this QASP. The COR is responsible for reporting early identification of performance problems to the KO. The COR is required to provide an annual performance assessment to the

KO which will be used in documenting past performance. The QASP is the primary tool for documenting contractor performance. The COR is not empowered to make any contractual commitments, changes or terminate a contract on the Government's behalf. The COR is authorized to contact the vendor to request enforcement of the contract.

Assigned COR: SFC Chacon, Genero, 2-218 FA BN, and Oregon National Guard. Phone and

E-mail to be provided at the time of award.

6 Performance Requirements and Method of Surveillance

Weekly inspections will be conducted upon delivery by COR or inspector to ensure services provided are in compliance with the contract.

6.1 Contract Surveillance

The goal of the QASP is to ensure that contractor performance is effectively monitored and documented. The COR's contribution is their professional, non-adversarial relationships with the KO and the contractor, which enables positive, open and timely communications. The foundation of this relationship is built upon objective, fair, and consistent COR evaluations of contractor performance against contract requirements. The COR uses the methods contained in this QASP to ensure the contractor is in compliance with contract requirements. The COR function is responsible for a wide range of surveillance requirements that effectively measure and evaluate the contractor's performance. Additionally, this QASP is based on the premise that the contractor, not the government, is responsible for management and QC/QA actions to successfully meet the terms of the contract.

6.2 Surveillance Matrix

The Surveillance Matrix (Appendix 1) is the list of performance objectives and standards that must be performed by the contractor. This matrix details the method of surveillance the COR will use to validate and inspect these performance elements. Inspection of each element will be documented in the COR file.

Performance objectives define the desired outcomes. Performance Standards define the level of service required under the contract to successfully meet the performance objective. The inspection methodology defines how, when, and what will be assessed in measuring performance. The Government performs surveillance, using this QASP, to determine the quality of the contractor's performance as it relates to the performance element standards. The PRS should be used to form the foundation of the COR's inspection checklist.

In evaluating the quality of contractor's performance, the following performance ratings may be used.

Performance

Rating

Criteria

Excellent/

Outstanding

Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds many to the government's benefits. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with no problems and contractor actions were highly effective.

Very Good Performance meets contractual requirements and exceeds some to the government benefits. The contractual performance was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

Good Performance meets contractual requirements. The contractual performance contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were satisfactory.

Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor's proposed actions appear marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

U satisfactory Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor's corrective actions a0>ear or were ineffective.
