Government inspections will be documented and placed in the COR’s file.

4) Affect the continuing rights of the Government after acceptance of the services.

Inspection of the supplies and services under this contract shall be made by the Contracting Officer's Representative (COR) or the designated Inspector as the work progresses and at such intervals as are necessary to insure compliance with the contract specifications and provisions. If the services are not acceptable by the COR, the contractor shall perform said services to the satisfaction of the COR in accordance to this contract at no cost to the government. Upon acceptance by the COR, the contractor may submit their invoice in the IPP system.

CONTRACTOR QUALITY CONTROL

The Contractor is to ensure the material and the quality of work is in accordance with this contract. Subcontracting work is not an excuse for substandard performance. The Contractor will have measures in place to ensure services are performed to the Statement of Work in this contract.
