If the AQL is exceeded, a portion of the contract price will be deducted in accordance with the computation system. An AQL does not allow the Contractor knowingly to offer defective service, but rather limits reduced payment to circumstances in which defective performance results in a measurable reduction in the value of the service rendered.
