INTRODUCTION. This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) has been developed to evaluate the contractor's actions while implementing this performance work statement (PWS). This document is designed to provide an effective surveillance method of monitoring the contractor's performance for each listed objective on the Service Delivery Summary (SDS) in the preventative maintenance, inspection / testing, repair, load testing, and certification of hoists and cranes.

The QASP provides a systematic method to evaluate the services that the contractor is required to furnish.

This QASP is based on the premise that the government requires a quality standard in the preventative maintenance, inspection / testing, repair, load testing and certification of hoist and cranes. This QASP is the best means of achieving that objective.

The contractor, and not the government, is responsible for the management and quality control actions required to meet the terms of the preventative maintenance, inspection / testing, repair, load testing and certification of hoists and cranes. The role of the government is quality assurance to ensure contract standards are achieved.

In this contract the quality control program is the driver for product quality. The contractor is required to develop a comprehensive program of inspections and monitoring actions. The first major step to ensuring a “self-correcting” contract is to ensure that the quality control program provides the measures needed for the contractor's success.

Once the quality control program is approved, careful application of the process and standards presented in the remainder of this document will ensure a robust quality assurance program.
