1.1.2. Contractor/Government Relations. Commissaries sell food and non-food items to authorized patrons in facilities and under operating conditions that are very similar to commercial supermarkets. Each commissary has an onsite supervisor—a Store Director—who is responsible for overall commissary operations. When the term Store Director is used elsewhere in this contract, it means the Store Director personally or any commissary personnel designated by a Store Director to act as an authorized representative of the Government. The Government will employ Quality Assurance Evaluators (QAE) to surveil and document Contractor performance. The Government Contracting Officer is responsible for overall administration/oversight of this contract. The Contracting Officer is solely authorized to change contract terms, to terminate the contract for cause, and to make determinations and findings that relate to contract provisions and Contractor performance. To facilitate compliance with the provisions of this contract, and coordination of commissary and contracted operations, the Contractor’s Project Manager (PM) and the Store Director should regularly and routinely discuss matters relating to contract performance. As necessary, the Contracting Officer may participate in these discussions. When the term PM is used elsewhere in this contract, it includes the PM and any alternate PM whom the Contractor may employ. Where the term Contractor employee is used elsewhere in this contract, it means any member of the Contractor’s work force including the PM.

1.2. COMMISSARY AND CONTRACTOR OPERATING HOURS

The Government will correct (if necessary) hazardous conditions in accordance with Government developed and approved plans of abatement taking into account safety and health priorities. A higher priority for correction will not be assigned to the facilities provided hereunder merely because of this contracting initiative.

The Contractor is responsible for ensuring Contractor employees comply with the requirements of OSHA. The Government will assume no liability or responsibility for the Contractor's compliance or noncompliance with such responsibilities with the exception of the aforementioned responsibility to make corrections IAW approved plans of abatement.
