Quality Control System

(1) The Contractor shall establish a quality control system to perform sufficient inspection and tests of all items of work, including that of subcontractors, to insure conformance to applicable specifications and drawings with respect to the materials, workmanship, work effort, finish, functional performance, and identification, with emphasis on the surveillance, tests and submittals required in the Technical Provisions of the contract specifications, including applicable in-plant inspection. This control will be established for all construction except where the Technical Provisions of the contract provide for specific Government control by inspections, tests or other means. The Contractor shall notify the COR or his authorized representative in writing of any proposed change to the Contractor's quality control system; no such change shall be implemented prior to acceptance in writing by the COR or his authorized representative.

(2) Quality Control Procedures The Contractor’s quality control system at the job site shall follow a three-step procedure consisting of:

(a) Preparatory Inspection;

(b) Initial Inspection; and

The Contractor’s designated Quality Control Representative shall notify the COR or authorized Government representative at least 24 hours before all preparatory and initial inspections. Preparatory and initial inspections shall be attended by the Contractor’s Quality Control Representative and the Contractor’s individual responsible for performing or supervising the applicable work. Government personnel may participate in preparatory, initial, and follow-up inspections. These quality control procedures shall apply to all major phases of work under this requirement, including site preparation, trenched conduit area preparation, subgrade placement, compaction, proof rolling, asphalt resurfacing, paving of the Communications Bunker #3 access road, optional Bunker #2 access road work if exercised, asphalt density testing, cleanup, and restoration.

(a) Preparatory Inspection A preparatory inspection shall be performed before beginning each major phase of work to verify that the work area, materials, equipment, personnel, safety controls, and planned methods are ready and comply with contract requirements.

At a minimum, preparatory inspections shall verify, as applicable, that:

4. Required subgrade preparation, compaction, proof rolling, asphalt placement, and density testing requirements are understood;

5. Site access, traffic control, safety, and environmental controls are in place; and

6. Unsatisfactory conditions have been identified and corrected or reported before work begins.

(b) Initial Inspection

An initial inspection shall be performed at the start of each major phase of work to confirm that workmanship, methods, materials, and equipment comply with the contract requirements before the work continues.

Follow-up inspections shall be performed daily or as often as necessary to ensure continuing compliance with the contract requirements and the quality standards established during the preparatory and initial inspections.

Follow-up inspections shall verify, as applicable, that:

1. Work remains within the required roadway limits and scope;

3. Required testing is performed and documented;

4. Defective or nonconforming work is identified, corrected, and re-inspected;

The Contractor shall not proceed with work that would conceal deficient preparation, subgrade, compaction, proof rolling, or other nonconforming conditions until the deficiency has been corrected and documented.

Quality Control Reports

The Contractor shall prepare and submit a daily Quality Control Report for each day work is performed on site. The report shall document the Contractor’s quality control activities and provide factual evidence that required inspections, tests, and corrective actions were performed. For normal workdays during the active construction period when no on-site work is performed, the Contractor shall submit a brief negative report or email stating that no work was performed and the reason. Reports are not required for weekends, federal holidays, or other days when no work was scheduled, unless work was performed or otherwise directed by the COR.

The daily Quality Control Report shall be submitted by email to the COR no later than the close of business on the first working day following the date of the report. Reports shall be legible, complete, and signed by the Prime Contractor’s designated Quality Control Representative. The Government may accept the

Contractor’s standard daily quality control report format, provided it contains the minimum information required by this section.
