BLM QUALITY CONTROL/QUALITY ASSURANCE

Print Date: May 2021 01400-1 \\BIL-FS\BIL-projects\26\21709-01\55Specs\01400_QC_QA.docx

PART 1 - GENERAL

DEFINITIONS:

Quality Control - planned and specific actions or operations necessary to produce a product that complies with the contract documents. Quality control consists of actions, inspections, sampling and testing necessary to ensure the work is in compliance with the contract documents and to control production and construction processes. Quality control is keyed to the construction sequence to quickly determine when the work is out of compliance with the contract documents and to respond to correct the situation and bring the work into compliance. Quality control is the responsibility of the CONTRACTOR.

Quality Assurance – planned and systematic observations, testing and actions to verify the work complies with the contract documents. Quality assurance includes oversight of the CONTRACTOR’s quality control, verifying the results of the CONTRACTOR’s testing and additional assurance sampling and testing. The GOVERMENT will provide quality assurance at a level determined necessary by the Contracting Officer.

Verification/Compliance Testing – sampling and testing which is carried out independent of the CONTRACTOR’s quality control testing to confirm/verify the work complies with the contract documents. The frequency of verification/compliance testing will be determined by the GOVERNMENT. Verification/compliance testing will not be used to determine construction procedures or operations (i.e. rolling patterns, lift thickness, etc.). Verification/compliance testing will be provided by the GOVERNMENT.

SUBMITTALS:

Submit records of all CONTRACTOR tests to the GOVERNMENT within 24 hours of the testing. The Quality Control laboratory is to notify the CONTRACTOR and GOVERNMENT promptly of irregularities or deficiencies observed in the Work during performance of the Quality Control Testing.

PART 2 - PRODUCTS - NONE

PART 3 - EXECUTION

COOPERATION WITH QUALITY ASSURANCE:

Assure the GOVERNMENT and Contracting Officer have access to all work areas at all times work is in progress. Provide any special facilities or equipment to access work areas at CONTRACTOR expense.

Notify the GOVERNMENT when the work is ready for quality assurance/quality control testing. Establish and update the construction schedule to provide the GOVERNMENT estimated sampling/testing dates and times. The GOVERNMENT may choose to obtain a split and comparison test of any samples collected for quality control testing. Provide adequate notice of testing plans to coordinate collection of samples.
