6.0 QUALITY CONTROL AND ASSURANCE

6.1 Performance standards. The contractor shall provide bus lease services in accordance with the performance standards identified in the Performance Objectives table below and commonly used commercial practices.

6.2 Acceptable Quality Level (AQL). The AQL is the minimum level of quality that the contractor is expected to meet. Deviations from the AQL are permitted as identified in the Performance Objective table below.

6.3 Government Surveillance. The Government will use performance-based contracting standards to evaluate all items within the performance objective table. This procedure will allow the Government to reduce the frequency of its evaluations as a result of quality Contractor performance, or increased evaluations in cases i n w h i c h the Contractor has performed poorly. The Government reserves the right to modify performance objectives during the life of the contract, in order to ensure that the right outcomes are being assessed and that performance objectives are appropriate.

6.4 Unacceptable Performance. The COR will notify the Contractor in writing in case of unacceptable performance. Unacceptable performance is defined as services not being accomplished properly or in a timely manner, or not being corrected properly or in a timely manner. When the contractor’s performance is unacceptable, the contractor shall respond to a “Contract Discrepancy Report” (CDR) when provided by the COR. The CDR will require the Contractor to explain, in writing, the cause of the discrepancy and the corrective action taken to obtain an acceptable level(s) of performance. Unacceptable performance that is corrected properly and in a timely manner will not result in a payment deduction. For non-time-sensitive defects, the Contractor will be provided three working days or a reasonable time after notification to correct the defective performance. The contractor may be allowed a 2-hour or reasonable response time for time sensitive defects.

6.5 Definition of “Services”. “Services”, as used in this section, includes the services performed, workmanship, and material furnished or used in the performance of this contract. The Contractor shall maintain buses in a satisfactory operating condition to ensure detection and correction of developing failures either before they occur or before they develop into major defects.

6.6 Remedies. The Government reserves the right to seek remedies in accordance with 52.212- 4(a), Inspection/Acceptance, for performance that falls below the acceptable performance levels. Consideration will be based on the extent of damages (costs for extra bus rental, time, etc.) caused by the contractor’s performance falling below the standard.

6.7 Government Actions in case of Contractor Non-Performance. If any of the services do not conform to contract requirements, the Government may (in ascending order of severity):

Require the Contractor to perform the services again in conformity with contract requirements, at no additional cost to the Government.

Require the Contractor to take necessary action to ensure that future performance conforms to contract requirements.

Reduce the contract price to reflect the reduced value of the services performed.

Have the services performed under another contract, or otherwise perform the services, and charge to the Contractor any cost incurred by the Government that is directly related to the performance of such service.

Terminate the Contract for Default.

6.8 Quality Control Actions by the Contractor.

Contractor Quality Control Plan. The contractor shall develop and maintain a Quality Control Plan (QCP) that adequately addresses how the Contractor plans to evaluate i t s pe r f or ma n c e , and ensure an acceptable Quality Level (AQL) for services described within the PWS.

Reference para. 5.5. The contractor shall evaluate the QCP as needed or upon request.

Contractor Inspections. The Contractor shall develop, maintain, and document an inspection system acceptable to the Government covering the services under this Contract.

6.9 Quality Assurance Actions by the Government.

Government Inspections. The Government has the right to inspect and test all services called for by the contract, to the extent practicable, at all times and places during the term of the contract. The Government will perform inspections and tests in a manner that will not unduly delay the work.
