Attachment 4 - Contract Discrepancy Report.pdf

This is a Contract Discrepancy Report (CDR) template used to document and resolve performance or compliance issues on federal contracts.

The CDR serves as a formal communication tool between the government and contractor to address contract discrepancies. The form captures initial discrepancy documentation from the Contracting Officer or Contracting Officer's Representative (COR), including the contract number, report number, relevant dates (prepared, returned by contractor, and action complete), and a detailed description of the problem with references to the Performance Work Statement (PWS) directive. The contractor then provides a formal response addressing the cause of the discrepancy, corrective actions taken, and preventive measures to avoid recurrence. The government subsequently evaluates the contractor's response and documents its decision (acceptance, partial acceptance, or rejection) along with any government actions such as reduced payment, cure notice, or show cause orders. The CDR closes out with sign-off from the contractor, COR, and Contracting Officer (CO), ensuring accountability and documentation of resolution throughout the contract administration process.
