QUALITY ASSURANCE SURVEILLANCE PLAN (QASP)

Propulsion Subsystem Support Contract (PSSC)

1. Vision

Nuclear Excellence…2030 and beyond.

2. Mission

Deliver a safe, secure, responsive, on-time and on-target nuclear deterrent force to the warfighter as the Nation's Nucleus for ICBM development, acquisition, and sustainment.

3. Purpose

This Quality Assurance Surveillance Plan (QASP) is a Government-developed document used to determine if the contractor’s performance meets the performance objectives contained in the contract. The QASP establishes procedures on how this assessment/inspection process will be conducted. It provides the detailed process for a continuous oversight process:

• What will be monitored

• How monitoring will take place

• Who will conduct the monitoring

• How monitoring efforts and results will be documented

The contractor is responsible for implementing and delivering performance that meets contract standards using the contractor’s Quality Control Plan (or equivalent contractor document). This QASP does not detail how the contractor accomplishes the work. Rather, the QASP is created with the premise that the contractor is responsible for management and quality control actions to meet the terms of the contract. The QASP provides the structure for the Government’s surveillance of the contractor’s performance to assure that it meets contract standards. It is the Government’s responsibility to be objective, fair, and consistent in evaluating contractor performance.

This QASP is a “living document” and the Government may review and revise it on a regular basis. However, the Government shall coordinate changes with the contractor. Updates shall ensure that the QASP remains a valid, useful, and enforceable document. Copies of the original QASP and revisions shall be provided to the contractor and Government officials implementing surveillance activities.

4. Authority

Authority for issuance of this QASP is provided under Federal Acquisition Regulation (FAR) Part 46, Quality Assurance, Inspection of Services clauses, which provides for inspection, acceptance, and documentation of the service called for in the contract or order. This acceptance is to be executed by the contracting officer or a duly authorized representative.

6. Performance Requirements and Method of Surveillance

6.1 Contract Surveillance

The goal of the QASP is to ensure contractor performance is effectively monitored and documented. The COR’s contribution is their professional, non-adversarial relationships with the CO, PM, and the contractor which enables positive, open, and timely communications. The foundation of this relationship is built upon objective, fair, and consistent COR evaluations of contractor performance against contract requirements. The COR uses the methods contained in this QASP to ensure the contractor is in compliance with contract requirements. The COR function is responsible for a wide range of surveillance requirements that effectively measure and evaluate the contractor’s performance. The COR will monitor and analyze the contractor’s on-going performance. Data for tracking trends can be gathered from all evaluation sources and methods to build the database upon which trend analysis can be based. Additionally, this QASP is based on the premise that the contractor, not the Government, is responsible for management and quality control/quality assurance actions to successfully meet the terms of the contract.

6.2 Surveillance Matrix

The Government performs surveillance, using this QASP, to determine the quality of the contractor’s performance as it relates to the performance threshold/metrics identified in the contract. The Surveillance Matrix (Attachment 1) should be used to form the foundation of the COR’s surveillance methodology.

A Services Summary is included in the PWS. The Services Summary summarizes the performance objectives and performance thresholds, required by the Government, in the contractor’s performance. The performance thresholds briefly describe the minimum acceptable levels of service required for each objective. All performance assessment data will be reviewed.

If performance improvement is necessary, the corrective action will be requested from the contractor.

The Surveillance Matrix (Attachment 1) is the list of performance objectives and threshold/metrics that must be performed by the contractor. The surveillance methodology defines the objective, threshold, method of surveillance, and remedy.

6.3 Performance Rating Definitions

In evaluating the quality of contractor’s performance, the following performance ratings may be used.

Performance Rating

Criteria

Excellent/ Outstanding

Performance meets and exceeds many contractual requirements to the government’s benefit. The contractual performance of the element or sub-element being assessed was accomplished with no problems and contractor actions were highly effective.

Very Good Performance meets and exceeds some contractual requirements to the government’s benefit. The contractual performance was accomplished with few minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were effective.

Good Performance meets contractual requirements. The contractual performance contains some minor problems for which corrective actions taken by the contractor were satisfactory.

Marginal Performance does not meet some contractual requirements. The contractual performance reflects a serious problem for which the contractor has not yet identified corrective actions. The contractor’s proposed actions appear marginally effective or were not fully implemented.

Unsatisfactory Performance does not meet most contractual requirements and recovery is not likely in a timely manner. The contractual performance contains serious problem(s) for which the contractor’s corrective actions appear or were ineffective.

6.4 Methods of Surveillance

Various methods exist to monitor performance. The COR shall use the surveillance methods listed below in the administration of this QASP. Surveillance results may be used as the basis for actions against the contractor.

Regardless of the surveillance method, the COR shall always contact the contractor's task manager or on-site representative when a defect is identified and inform the manager of the specifics of the problem. The COR shall be responsible for monitoring the contractor’s performance in meeting a specific performance standard.

a. Direct Observation. During unannounced, periodic observations, the contractor is providing the requested and required support to the satisfaction of the Government. If there are issues with that support, the contractor, once aware, makes every effort to resolve the issues to ensure Government complete satisfaction. Inspections may be conducted at any time during the period of performance as determined by the COR.

b. Customer Surveys. Customer surveys may be obtained from the results of formal customer satisfaction surveys or from random customer feedback information. Customer complaints identified in the survey should be provided in writing to the COR, using the Customer Complaint Record (Attachment 3) when available. The COR shall maintain a summary log and enter findings into the Quality Performance Assessment (QPA) (Attachment 2).

c. Validated User/Customer Complaints. In the event there are user/customer complaints in any areas of contract performance, the complaints will be presented to the contractor for their response and resolution. User/Customer complaints should be provided to the COR, using the Customer Complaint Record (Attachment 3) when available. In cases where the situation cannot be resolved to the customer’s satisfaction, a less than favorable performance rating will result. In cases where there is timely and adequate resolution of the issue, there will be no unfavorable ratings made.

d. 100% Inspection. Inspection will be accomplished on each CDRL deliverable and may be accomplished on all information provided by the vendor. Deliverables will be analyzed for completeness and accuracy with the expectation that no changes will be required. When corrections are required, the contractor will be expected to implement the corrective actions to avoid recurrence of the errors or types of errors.

e. Progress or Status Meetings. For specified taskings, typically those of significant size and duration, recurring progress/status meetings will be required for the purpose of reporting on those areas of interest to the Government. These meetings are expected to be well organized with an advance agenda provided. Progress from previous meetings and against projected schedules will be provided with appropriate updates. The contractor will be expected to take notes, action items, and publish timely and accurate minutes. The COR may use Program Management Reviews, Risk Management Boards, and IPT meetings to determine progress or status of performance.

7. Documenting Performance

Documentation must be accurate and thorough. Completeness, currency, and accuracy support both satisfactory and unsatisfactory performance.

a. Acceptable Performance. The Government shall document positive performance.

b. Unacceptable Performance. When unacceptable performance occurs, the COR shall inform the CO and subsequent notification will be made to the contractor. This will normally be in writing unless circumstances necessitate verbal communication. In any case the COR shall document the discussion and place it in the COR file.

When the COR determines formal written communication is required, the COR shall prepare a QPA and present it to the contractor's task manager or on-site representative. A QPA template is attached to this QASP.

The contractor shall acknowledge receipt of the QPA in writing. The QPA will specify if the contractor is required to prepare a corrective action plan to document how the contractor shall correct the unacceptable performance and avoid a recurrence. The QPA will also state how long after receipt the contractor has to present this corrective action plan to the COR. The Government shall review the contractor's corrective action plan to determine acceptability.

7.1 Contract Performance Assessment

Contract Performance Assessment Reporting System (CPARS). CPARS will be initiated annually, documenting contractor performance for this specific contract. More frequent updates may be made as required to document a significant improvement or degradation of the level of contract performance. The Assessing Official Representative will be the COR; the Assessing Official will be the Functional Commander/Functional Director.

8. Disputes

Every attempt will be made to resolve all disputes arising under this contract, using Alternate Dispute Resolution (ADR) as outlined in FAR 33.214. If no resolution can be made under ADR the CO will render a CO’s final decision.

9. Revisions

Revisions to the QASP are the joint responsibility of the CO and COR. Personnel may submit proposed changes through the COR for coordination with the contractor. This is a living document that may be revised or modified as circumstances warrant.
