SECTION 6
SERVICES SUMMARY
6.0. SERVICES SUMMARY (SS). The SS identifies critical success factors for the contract.
The SS performance objective or assessment items may be included with each task order. The
SS is a list of performance objectives and performance thresholds that Government personnel verify IAW the QASP and could result in a major finding if the performance threshold is not met. Each performance objective represents a significant task as identified in the PWS by the
Government at the time of contract award. The performance threshold represents the minimum acceptable level of performance. The performance objectives and performance thresholds represent the most significant tasks of this contract.
6.1. PURPOSE. The SS lists performance objectives for the required services the Government will surveil. 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 other provision of the contract including the clauses entitled “Inspection of Services” and “Default.”
6.2. COMPONENTS. The SS states the performance objective (required service), and threshold (performance standard, accept and reject points (if applicable) in either a qualitative or quantitative fashion) for each critical success factor.
6.3. QASP. The SS will be used as the baseline to develop a Government QASP. The QASP will identify the audit methods and procedures the Government will use to evaluate the
Contractor's performance.
6.4. RIGHT TO SURVEIL. The Government reserves the right to surveil all services and requirements called for in this PWS and those issued with task orders to determine whether the contractor is meeting performance objectives and goals.
6.5. MEASUREMENT, ANALYSIS, AND IMPROVEMENT (MA&I).
6.5.1. Quality Assurance. According to the Inspection of Services clauses, the Government will evaluate the contractor’s performance under this contract. The Government will use compliance and management audits to verify and validate contractor performance to the PWS.
The primary compliance audit surveillance tool is the COR and Contractor Performance
Assessment Team (CPAT) audit. The Government may decrease or increase the scope and frequency of contract performance evaluations based on the contractor’s past performance, risk assessment, and level of confidence provided by contract performance.
6.5.2. Evaluations. Government audits will be performed on a periodic basis. At contract start the Government will schedule/perform audits. If contractor performance to specified requirements is exceptional and provides sound confidence and a “low” risk level, then
Government contract evaluations may be reduced in scope and frequency. If contractor performance of specified requirements significantly reduces confidence and raises risk to the
“high” level, then the Government may initiate a more in-depth systems audit on the contract
Page | 20 of 26 requirement that is in violation of specified requirements.
6.5.3. Major Non-Conformance. A non-conformance that adversely impacts (or has the potential to) mission, safety of personnel and/or equipment, environment, performance
(quality), schedule (delivery), and/or cost. The CO will communicate major non-conformances to the contractor using a Corrective Action Request (CAR) form with a suspense date for the contractor’s corrective action plan.
As a minimum, the contractor’s action plan will address:
(1) Action taken to fix the problem (correction)
(2) Root cause analysis of the problem
(3) Corrective action on the cause of the problem
(4) Actions taken to prevent recurrence to include the follow-up plan (how and when)
(5) Action(s) required by the Contractor’s Quality Plan
(6) All supporting evidence to support actions taken such as updated manuals, instructions, procedures, etc. Embed supporting evidence in this section to maintain a single point document unless size is restrictive of security policies prevent embedding.
In these cases, provide location of the documents.
6.5.4. Minor Non-Conformance. A minor non-conformance is a non-conformance, which by itself does not adversely impact mission, safety of personnel and/or equipment, performance
(quality), schedule (delivery), or cost. Minor non-conformances are communicated through
Notices; First Notices are issued for any identified minor nonconformance, Second Notices are issued for repeat minor non-conformances or failing to correct minor non-conformances within a reasonable amount of time. A formal corrective action plan is not required for Notices.
6.6. PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES/THRESHOLDS. Performance objectives may be added or deleted, and performance thresholds raised or lowered during the course of this contract. For example, repeated contractor performance deficiencies in non-critical areas may force the related requirement to become a performance objective in the SS. Conversely, changes in technology or mission requirements may eliminate SS objectives. Performance
Objective Thresholds may be defined in each task order.
