2. Services Summary.
2.1 Overview.
The Contractor service delivery requirements are summarized into performance objectives that relate directly to standards of performance required to meet mission essential needs. For the Performance Objective to be met, service delivery must be in substantial compliance with applicable performance standards. The Performance Threshold describes the minimum overall levels of service delivery required for acceptable quality control. Failure to meet these Performance Thresholds means that Contractor Quality Control is unacceptable. The following is a list of the key performance objectives that will be verified as contractually compliant by Government personnel; however, inspection of any contract requirement is authorized.
This Services Summary (SS) identifies critical success factors for the contract. It identifies both the performance objectives for those factors and the performance threshold required for each performance objective. The Government reserves the right to survey all services called for in the contract to determine whether or not the performance objectives and goals were met. This Services Summary (SS) lists the performance objectives for the required service that the Government shall survey.
2.1.1. The absence of any contract requirement from the SS shall not detract from its enforceability, nor limit the rights or remedies of the Government under any clause of the contract.
2.1.2. The SS will be used as the baseline to develop a Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP). The QASP will be developed by the base’s Civil Engineer Squadron’s Operations Flight in conjunction with the installation’s Security Forces Squadron’s barrier expert. The QASP will identify the surveillance methods the Government will use to evaluate the Contractor’s performance.
2.1.3. Surveillance methods may include, but are not limited to: customer feedback, random inspection, and end user feedback.
2.2. Performance Evaluation.
Performance of a service will be evaluated to determine whether or not it meets the performance threshold. Re-performance is the preferred method of correcting any unacceptable performance. The Contractor shall perform to the performance thresholds for each performance objective in Table 2-1 for evaluation and determination of acceptable performance.
