TECHNICAL EXHIBIT 1

PERFORMANCE REQUIREMENTS SUMMARY

1. The purpose of this Performance Requirements Summary is to:

1.1 List those contract requirements (column 1) which are paid for on the basis of a payment computation system specified in paragraph 4 of this Technical Exhibit. The absence from this Performance Requirement Summary (PRS) of any contract requirement, however, shall not detract from its enforceability or limit the rights or remedies of the Government under any other provision of the contract.

1.2 Define the standard of performance for each required service (column 2).

1.3 Show the maximum allowable degree of deviation from specified performance for each requirement that shall be allowed by the Government before contract performance is considered unsatisfactory (column 3).

1.4 Explain the quality assurance method the Coast Guard will use to evaluate the Contractor's performance in meeting the contract requirements (column 4).

1.5 Show the percentage of the contract price that each listed contract requirement represents (column 5).

1.6 Define the procedure the Government will use in reducing the Contractor's payment if satisfactory performance is not rendered by the Contractor.

2. The Government may use a variety of surveillance methods to evaluate the Contractor's performance.

The government's primary quality assurance procedure will be 100% surveillance of the requirements listed in column 1. Other areas will be reviewed periodically (i.e., monthly, quarterly, semiannually) using the Government's Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan.

3. The Contractor's performance will be evaluated by the Quality Assurance Evaluator (QAE). When the Contractor's performance is discovered by the QAE to be unacceptable, the QAE shall complete a Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR) and routed to the COR. In the CDR the Contractor will explain in writing why performance was unsatisfactory, how performance will be returned to satisfactory levels, and how recurrence of the problem will be prevented in the future. The criteria for these requirements were derived from estimates of the level of performance experienced when the service was done by government personnel and are the levels of performance deemed acceptable to the Government. The Contracting Officer will evaluate the Contractor's explanation and determine if full payment, partial payment or the contract termination process is applicable. The Contractor's payment for service rendered will be calculated as stated in paragraph 4.

4. The Contractor shall be paid for all work performed in accordance with the contract standards.

Payments for Work Orders will be reduced for late or unsatisfactory performance using the following method:

4.1 Contractor performance will be compared to contract standards using the Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) in this Technical Exhibit.

4.2 If performance in any required service is unsatisfactory, and the poor performance was not caused by Government action, or lack of action, an amount of money up to an amount equal to the line item price multiplied by the percentage cost of the service as stated in column five of the Performance Requirements Summary Table, shall be deducted.

5. Work Order payments to the Contractor will be reduced for unsatisfactory performance using the following methods:

5.1 Example of Deduct Computation for buoys:

Assume an 8X26 LR is being overhauled via CLIN X00001D for $7,562.30. The work request is dated 05 July 2018 and buoy is available at the time of the work request. As stated in Technical Exhibit 3, the Contractor has twenty-six calendar days to deliver the satisfactorily completed buoy.

Therefore, the buoy must be delivered and accepted by the Government by 31 July 2018. Assume the buoy is delivered on 02 August 2018 and is accepted by the Government. The buoy is two days late. The deduction computation is made as follows:

(1) Line item price for service $7,562.30

(2) Percentage deduction:

2 days times 1% per day x 2%

(3) Deduction from Work Order Invoice $151.25
