1. Visual inspections for compliance with included Performance Standards and other contract requirements. The Government will perform random visual inspections the day after services are rendered. Inspections will be documented in a written inspection report or daily diary.
2. Satisfaction with Contractor performance: CO shall investigate validity of complaints regarding
Contractor performance under this contract. Complaints - valid or not - will be documented in a written inspection report or daily diary.
When sub-standard performance is observed or valid complaints received, the Contractor and/or
Contractor’s Designated Representative shall be notified in writing through the issuance of Notice of Non-
Compliance.
The contractor shall correct unsatisfactory performance within the next cleaning cycle at no cost to the government. Continued failure to perform satisfactorily by the Contractor may cause a termination for default of the Contractor’s right to proceed.

Rework of unacceptable work will be permitted if the schedule allows. If the unacceptable work is not reworked and accepted, a 1% deduction in payment will be assessed and additional more stringent inspections will be performed. If a complete day of cleaning is missed, an 8% deduction will be made for that month. Full payment will be made for acceptable work.
