GOVERNMENT QUALITY ASSURANCE PLAN FOR CUSTODIAL SERVICES

This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) has been developed to evaluate contractor actions while implementing this Statement of Work. It is designed to provide an effective surveillance method of monitoring contractor performance for each listed objective on the Service Delivery Summary (SDS) in the maintenance contract.

The QASP provides a systematic method to evaluate the services the contractor is required to furnish.

This QASP is based on the premise the government desires to maintain a quality standard in the custodial functions needed for their facilities and that a janitorial service contract to provide these services is the best means of achieving that objective.

The contractor, and not the government, is responsible for management and quality control actions to meet the terms of the contract. The role of the government is quality assurance to ensure contract standards are achieved.

In this contract the quality control program is the driver for service quality. The contractor is required to develop a Quality Control Plan for inspections and monitoring actions. The first major step to ensuring a “self-correcting” contract is to ensure that the quality control program approved at the beginning of the contract provides the measures needed to lead the contractor to success.

Once the quality control program is approved, careful application of the process and standards presented in the remainder of this document will ensure a high-quality assurance program.
